State Rep. Chuck Moseley, D-Portage, has filed for re-election to Indiana House District 10.

In his candidate announcement statement, Moseley said that with nearly 300,000 Hoosiers out of work, the Indiana Legislature needs to focus on ways to get Indiana back on track. “We can do this by directing more resources to help small business, ensuring that companies receiving tax incentives create the jobs they promised, and by making certain that tax dollars and stimulus funds are being used in the best manner when it comes to getting Northwest Indiana Hoosiers back to work,” his statement says.

Moseley was first elected to the Indiana General Assembly in 2008. He serves on the Public Health Committee and the Veterans Affairs & Public Safety Committee, and is the Vice-Chair of the Labor & Employment Committee. A veteran of the Army National Guard, he is a past president of the Portage Chamber of Commerce and of the Portage Township School Board.

“This session, I have been proud of the work I have done on funding for adult education,” Moseley said. “With so many Hoosiers out of work, we need to continue to provide them the tools they will need to get them back to school to further their education. When we do this, we will all come out on top.”

Moseley, whose 10th district includes the Duneland community, said constituents can contact him by calling his legislative assistant Anne Hancock at 1-800-382-9842 or by emailing h10@in.gov. “The best way for me to serve you is for me to hear from you,” Moseley said.
