Indy Chamber endorses Hamilton County’s four GOP mayoral candidates

Submitted by Indy Chamber

The Indy Chamber’s Business Advocacy Committee (BAC), eminent for its commitment to regional collaboration and supporting the business community across central Indiana, has announced its endorsements for the upcoming 2023 municipal elections.

These endorsements reflect the BAC’s dedication to advancing regional development and economic progress throughout the nine-county central Indiana region.

Adam Burtner, Vice President of Business Advocacy at the Indy Chamber, expressed the importance of these endorsements, saying, “Our endorsements reflect our commitment to fostering a thriving business environment across central Indiana through strong elected leadership and effective policymaking. We believe these candidates possess the vision and dedication needed to fuel regional growth and prosperity.”

In the regional mayoral races, the Indy Chamber’s BAC proudly endorses many incumbent mayors and a few new candidates who are dedicated to economic development and the betterment of the entire Indy region. These endorsed candidates have consistently demonstrated their commitment to fostering regional collaboration among businesses, stakeholders, and communities with a shared vision of sustainable economic growth.

The endorsements include:

  • Scott Fadness (R-Fishers)
  • Sue Finkam (R-Carmel)
  • Chris Jensen (R-Noblesville)
  • Scott Willis (R-Westfield)

“Local leaders play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our communities, with Mayors and City Councils influencing decisions directly impacting our businesses, neighborhoods, and daily lives,” Burtner said. “Yet municipal elections see the lowest voter turnout of any election cycle. I urge all business leaders and residents of the Indy Region to engage in these races and, above all, vote!”
