State Senator Vaneta Becker on Supporting Law Enforcement

Supporting Indiana’s Law Enforcement

Law enforcement officers protect our communities in many ways, and supporting them is one of my top priorities.

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.

Indiana Hunt for Hunger

Hunters can donate their harvested deer to help feed hungry Hoosiers this year

by participating in the Hunt for Hunger program.

Hunters can drop off their field-dressed deer at participating processors throughout the state. The processor then creates venison burgers that are distributed to area food banks.
