Warrick County resident Mike Griffin has put his name on the Republican ballot to run for state representative of House District 75.
With
more than 40 years of experience in the finance industry, Griffin has
developed new business while maintaining existing accounts and
overseeing hundreds of employees.
Griffin
wants to maintain the tax cuts current House Representative Ron Bacon
put in place during his time in office. His platform also contains
finishing bringing high-speed broadband infrastructure to the District,
driving more funding to teacher pay and continuing to cut government red
tape for more efficiency and protecting the First and Second Amendment
rights of Hoosiers. While in office, Griffin would build on Governor
Holcomb’s agenda of maternal and infant mortality by protecting the
mothers and their unborn. He also believes there is still work to do
when it comes to addressing Indiana’s drug epidemic.
House District 75, includes most of Warrick County and the Southern half of Spencer and Pike counties.
