State Senator Vaneta Becker on Supporting Law Enforcement

That’s why Senate Republicans have passed new laws in recent years to:

• Raise the pay of state police officers;
• Provide funds for upgrades at the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy; and
• Fund a new training facility at the Northwest Indiana Law Enforcement Academy.

I also supported a proposed amendment to the Indiana Constitution that would help keep officers safe by allowing judges to keep dangerous individuals in jail while they await trail. Under Indiana’s constitutional amendment process, this important change could be ratified by Hoosier voters in 2026.
