“I am grateful for the opportunity to meet with Indiana’s congressional delegation to discuss how we can work together to address the unique challenges and opportunities facing our state. The collaboration between state and federal leaders is critical to ensuring that Indiana’s businesses, communities, and citizens continue to thrive. I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Congressmen Stutzman, Shreve, and Messmer for their time and their commitment to Indiana’s future. I look forward to working alongside our delegation to create more opportunities for Hoosiers,” said Diego Morales, Indiana Secretary of State.

Secretary Morales also thanked Indiana’s Congressional leaders for their ongoing support and cooperation to maintain Indiana’s position as a leader in economic development and innovation.

LaPorte Community School Corporation Participates in Community Funding Resource Program

INDIANAPOLIS – Treasurer Daniel Elliott announced that the Indiana Bond Bank assisted LaPorte Community School Corporation with project financing through its Community Funding Resource (CFR) Program. The funds will be used for capital projects throughout the school corporation.

“The Community Resource Funding Program gives folks up to 25 years to pay back, with the benefit of Indiana’s strong financial position. It’s got steady payments and helps with new or old projects, so our communities can get the funds they need to get important things done, making life better for everyone,” said Treasurer Elliott.

The CFR program helps local Indiana governments fund a wide range of essential capital projects. The program offers terms of up to 25 years, does not require a public credit rating, and provides a fixed amortization for the life of the loan. Eligible entities include cities, towns, school corporations, townships, libraries, counties, and other local governmental units. La Porte Community School Corporation Indiana Bond Bank
