INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana’s sixth district will have a new member of the U.S. House of Representatives after November’s election.
U.S. Rep. Greg Pence, R-Ind. District 6 announced in January that he would not be running for reelection for the position. Pence, who was initially elected to the seat in 2018, said at the time that his frustration with GOP infighting as well as the lack of congressional progress played a role in his decision to retire.
