2021 legislative calendar

Our local Meet Your Legislators sessions at Central Library won't be happening in 2021 due to COVID. Instead we will try to help you keep track of what is going on in the Indiana legislature.

HOW TO USE THE INDIANA GENERAL ASSEMBLY'S WEBSITE

The Indiana General Assembly's website is an invaluable tool for following the 2021 Legislative Session and can be found here: https://iga.in.gov/.

The website has an upcoming meetings section on the homepage. This will tell you what time and day session and committees are meeting. It also includes a video icon next to it so that you are able to watch the live stream, though it does usually run slightly behind.

On the homepage you will also see multiple tabs and a search bar. You can search and follow session, committees, legislation, legislators, and Indiana code here.

The standing committees section will contain information about the committees being heard during session: https://iga.in.gov/legislative/2021/committees/standing.
You can search bills by number, legislator, or subject: ttps://iga.in.gov/legislative/2021/bills/ ttps://iga.in.gov/legislative/2021/bills/.

When you click on a bill it will give you the text of the bill and also what actions have been taken on it which can be located on the left-hand side. While there will not be any information at this time, both the committee and bill sections will be updated regularly.

In the search bar you can look up anything that is on the website but you can specifically narrow it to search Indiana Code, bills, or legislators.
