State District 44 Sen. Eric Koch, R-Bedford, has been appointed to serve on four committees during the 121st Indiana General Assembly.

Koch will serve as the ranking member of the Committee on Judiciary and as a member of the committees on Commerce and Technology; Corrections and Criminal Law; and Utilities.

“Committees are one of the most important steps of the legislative process, as members determine whether proposed legislation will receive further consideration,” Koch said.

The 2019 legislative session ceremonially began Nov. 20, with Organization Day. Legislators will reconvene Jan. 3 and, by law, must complete the legislative session no later than April 29.
