(Salem, Ind.) - Congresswoman Erin Houchin has filed as a candidate for re-election in Indiana’s Ninth District. 

“Our first year has flown by, but we have been hard at work fighting for the American people, and our work has just begun,” said Houchin. “I often say we need more Washington County commonsense in Washington D.C., and that’s what we’ve been delivering. From fighting the reckless and out-of-control spending of the Biden Administration, to securing our Southern border and stopping the flow of criminals and drugs into our country, we will not back down. I'm committed to being the strong conservative fighter our district needs. I will never waver on my commitment to protecting our freedoms and liberties, keeping our communities safe, and ensuring our children have a bright future.”

First elected in 2022, Houchin currently serves on the House Financial Services Committee, Rules Committee, and the Education and Workforce Committee. She lives in Salem with her husband, Dustin, and their three children. Houchin will appear as a candidate for re-election in the upcoming Republican Primary in May. 

Indiana's Ninth District includes Brown, Clark, Dearborn, Decatur, Floyd, Harrison, Jackson, Jefferson, Jennings, Lawrence, Monroe, Ohio, Ripley, Scott, Switzerland, and Washington counties.
