Eric J. Holcomb, 51st Governor of the State of Indiana, is a lifelong Hoosier who was born in Indianapolis, Indiana, graduated from Pike High School in Indianapolis and Hanover College in southeastern Indiana. He went on to serve six years in the U.S. Navy, first at Naval Station Great Lakes and later in Florida and Portugal. Holcomb is currently serving in his second term as governor having been elected in 2016 and 2020 when he received the most votes for governor in Indiana History. Prior to his election as governor, Holcomb served as Indiana’s 51st Lieutenant Governor. A basketball fan and collector of presidential signatures, Holcomb has not only made a basket in each of Indiana’s 92 counties but also possesses documents signed by every U.S. president.
Earning a reputation as a pragmatic consensus builder, Holcomb frequently travels throughout the state, visiting with Hoosiers about how to make Indiana the best place in the world to live, work, study, play and stay. Under Holcomb’s leadership, Indiana’s economy is strong, the state’s finances are honestly balanced, and the state is streamlining government services and returning dollars to Hoosier taxpayers, while simultaneously delivering significant investments and advancements in infrastructure, education, workforce, quality of life and public health.
During Holcomb’s terms, Indiana employees and employers have enjoyed consecutive record-breaking years of job commitments. In 2022, companies committed a record-breaking $22.2 billion in capital investment. In 2023, Forbes recognized Indiana as the best state in the U.S. to start a business. Actively seeking to build global relationships and attract investments in Indiana’s economic growth, Holcomb has made 18 international trips as governor, visiting more than 20 nations. With Holcomb at the helm Indiana touts a sterling AAA credit rating.
Maintaining Indiana’s “Crossroads of America” infrastructure and strengthening Indiana’s connections between our communities is a top priority for Holcomb. He implemented a long-term, fully-funded 20-year, $60 billion Next Level Roads program. Holcomb has strengthened communities and improved quality of life with the Next Level Trails program, the largest-ever state investment in Indiana’s trail systems a $180 million investment, and $35 million for land conservation efforts. In 2019 and again in 2022, CNBC ranked Indiana number one in the nation for infrastructure.
Holcomb has worked to align Indiana’s K-12, higher education, workforce and economic development efforts to empower Hoosiers with the necessary skills to succeed in the economy of the future. He launched the Next Level Jobs program to prepare and connect more Hoosiers to high-demand, high-wage careers. He has signed historic investments in education into law, including a $1.47 billion increase in K-12 tuition support in 2024 and 2025. Under Holcomb’s leadership, Indiana has become a trailblazer for school choice and parental empowerment by expanding vouchers, enhancing charter school access, and advancing work-based learning.
In 2023, Holcomb led the effort to transform public health funding in Indiana yielding a %1,500 increase in state dollars to local health departments. This followed the recommendations from the Governor’s Public Health Commission that Holcomb created in 2021. Politico recognized Holcomb’s leadership on public health saying, “Indiana may offer a conservative model for improving fragile and beleaguered public health systems and countering the growing opposition to them that’s dominating the discourse.”
Holcomb serves on the Executive Committee of the National Governors Association and Republican Governors Association. In 2018, The Hill named him one of ten governors shaping the future of politics. An article in Governing magazine read, “Indiana’s governor doesn’t scream, doesn’t threaten, and doesn’t even complain. He just wins.”
Holcomb and his wife, Janet, live with their Miniature Schnauzer, Henry, and cat, Topper, in the Governor’s Residence in Indianapolis.

Governance
Delivering Great Government Service
There’s a reason why U.S. News & World Report ranks Indiana as the top state in the nation for government effectiveness. Governor Holcomb has helped build our state government into a lean operation that’s centered around serving Hoosiers – all while making sure government is open and accountable.
Economy
The Fiscal Envy of the Nation
Balancing budgets. Paying bills. Living within our means. That’s the motto of working Hoosier families, and it’s Governor Holcomb’s charge in leading our state. Under his leadership, Indiana is maintaining its AAA credit rating (the best in the nation!) and healthy rainy day fund, which is protecting Indiana against potential emergencies or financial downturns.
And, of course, that’s while taxes in Indiana continue to drop! Indiana’s personal income tax rate dropped to 3.23% in 2017, which is among the lowest in the nation. That’s while taxes for businesses continue to go down, and Indiana enjoys the benefits of permanently capped property taxes and no inventory tax. It’s an environment built for growth and opportunity!
< BACK TO ISSUES
Attracting Record Job Commitments
More Hoosiers are working today than ever before! But we aren’t stopping there. In 2017, companies committed to create more than 30,000 high-wage jobs throughout Indiana in high-growth industries like advanced manufacturing, agribusiness, logistics, life sciences, defense, technology, and more.
Whether it’s new jobs created at homegrown small businesses or international companies choosing Indiana for their next big investment, Indiana is on the map as the best place in the Midwest to do business!
And we broke records again in 2018, with commitments for an additional 31,000 Hoosier high-wage jobs.
Related Press Releases
Across Indiana, companies are looking to hire hardworking Hoosiers to fill great jobs – jobs in high-demand industries like manufacturing, life sciences, technology, and logistics. By 2025, there will be more than one million job openings across the state due to retirements and the creation of new jobs.
Through Governor Holcomb’s Next Level Jobs plan, we’re working to help Hoosiers build the skills needed to fill these in-demand, high-wage jobs – helping them earn larger paychecks and open new doors of opportunity.
Next Level Jobs provides Hoosiers with free classes and access to certificate programs through partners like Ivy Tech Community College and Vincennes University. There, Hoosiers are gaining the in-demand skills needed to begin their next big job!
Next Level Jobs also helps Hoosiers already on-the-job by providing employers with grants to skill-up their workforce! To learn more about Next Level Jobs, visit https://www.nextleveljobs.org/.
< BACK TO ISSUES
Education
For Governor Holcomb, making sure that every Hoosier student has a safe place to learn and grow is a top priority. That’s why Indiana is providing local school leaders with expanded resources to help them maintain secure environments for all students.
New resources include a program that’s now placed more than 3,200 handheld metal detectors in Indiana public, charter, and private schools at no cost to them. They’ve gone to more than 370 schools – including 94% of all traditional Indiana public schools – to help them track what’s coming into school buildings.
In addition, schools have expanded access to school safety grants and access to a $35 million low-interest loan program for making school updates. And Indiana isn’t stopping until all schools have the tools they need – it simply cannot wait.
Health Care
ATTACK THE DRUG EPIDEMIC & PROMOTE PUBLIC HEALTH
When it comes to attacking the state’s opioid epidemic, Governor Holcomb has made an all-hands-on-deck call. Together, we’re working to help Hoosiers achieve and maintain recovery – bettering our communities, economy, public safety, and quality of life for all Hoosiers.
And we’re making progress with a focus on prevention, treatment, and enforcement, which includes:
• Providing communities with training and funding for naloxone, which is saving lives by reversing overdoses.
• Expanding drug take-back programs – reducing the number of drugs available for misuse.
• Increasing the number of opioid treatment sites statewide – placing nearly all Hoosiers within one-hour’s drive of help.
• Strengthening felony charges for individuals whose dealing of illicit drugs leads to the death of a fellow Hoosier.
< BACK TO ISSUES
Infrastructure
Making Record Road Investments
Indiana is home to one of the nation’s only fully-funded infrastructure plans of its kind – Next Level Roads. Without borrowing money from future generations of Hoosiers, Indiana is investing $32 billion into our state’s roads and bridges over the next 20 years. In the first five years alone, Hoosiers can expect to see 122 new lane miles, 1,300 bridges, and 10,000 miles of re-paved roads. That’s rolling in the right direction!
A study by Purdue University shows that 93,000 Hoosiers are currently living without access to reliable, high-speed internet service. In a world where internet access is critical for commerce, health care, education, and more. It’s critical that we expand affordable, high-speed broadband access to ALL Hoosiers.
That’s why through Next Level Connections – Governor Holcomb’s 2019 infrastructure plan – Indiana will invest $100 million to bring broadband access to rural Indiana.
Connecting Indiana to the World
Connecting Hoosiers with the world around us doesn’t stop with roads and bridges. That’s why Governor Holcomb announced plans to invest $1 billion into Indiana infrastructure! This includes:
$600 million to accelerate the completion of I-69 to 2024
$190 million for improvements along U.S. 20 and U.S. 30 in Northern Indiana
New interchanges to speed up the trip between South Bend and Indianapolis on U.S. 31
$100 million to bring high-speed, affordable broadband to rural Indiana
$90 million to expand connectivity of Indiana’s hiking, biking, and riding trails
$20 million to attract additional international non-stop flights to Indiana
< BACK TO ISSUES
For more than a decade, Indiana has been building I-69 – one continuous road connecting Evansville to Indianapolis and the rest of the state. I-69 is now complete between Evansville and Martinsville.
Through Next Level Connections – Governor Holcomb’s 2019 infrastructure plan – Indiana will invest $600 million to accelerate the completion of I-69 by three years…connecting Evansville and Indianapolis by 2024.
More Information
Wikipedia
Eric Joseph Holcomb (born May 2, 1968)[1] is an American politician who has served since 2017 as the 51st governor of Indiana. A member of the Republican Party, he served as the 51st lieutenant governor of Indiana from 2016 to 2017 under Governor Mike Pence, who left the governorship in 2017 to become the vice president of the United States. Holcomb was nominated to fill the remainder of Lieutenant Governor Sue Ellspermann‘s term after she resigned on March 2, 2016, to become president of Ivy Tech Community College.[2] He won the 2016 election for governor of Indiana over Democratic nominee John R. Gregg. Holcomb was reelected in 2020 over Democratic nominee Woody Myers and Libertarian nominee Donald Rainwater.[3]
Early life and education
Holcomb was born in Indianapolis, Indiana. He graduated from Pike High School in Indianapolis,[4] and in 1990 from Hanover College in Hanover, Indiana. At Hanover, he joined the fraternity Phi Gamma Delta[5] and served as chapter president. Holcomb served in the United States Navy for six years, first at Naval Station Great Lakes and later in Florida and Portugal.[6] He received an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters Degree from Trine University on October 5, 2018,[7] an Honorary Doctorate of Laws from Anderson University on May 11, 2019,[8] and an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters Degree from Rose-Hulman on May 30, 2020.[9]
Early political career
Holcomb began working for John Hostettler, a member of the United States House of Representatives, in 1997.[10] In 2000, Holcomb ran for the Indiana House of Representatives against John Frenz, but was defeated.[4]
From 2003 to 2011, Holcomb served as an advisor to Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels, eventually rising to the role of Deputy Chief of Staff,[11][12][13] and served as campaign manager for Daniels’s 2008 gubernatorial campaign. He became Chairman of the Indiana Republican Party in 2011.[14] In 2013, he resigned to become the state chief of staff to U.S. Senator Dan Coats.[15][16] In March 2015 Coats announced that he would not run for reelection to the Senate in the 2016 election, and Holcomb announced his intention to run.[17] In February 2016, Holcomb withdrew from the Senate race.[18][19]
After Lieutenant Governor Sue Ellspermann announced her resignation, Governor Mike Pence chose Holcomb to succeed her and to be his running mate in the 2016 gubernatorial election.[20] Holcomb was sworn in as lieutenant governor on March 3, 2016.[21]
Governor of Indiana
Elections
2016
Governor Mike Pence was running for reelection with Holcomb as his running mate in the spring and summer of 2016. By late June, rumors that Pence would be the Republican Party’s nominee for vice president under presumptive presidential nominee Donald Trump began to gain traction. In early July, Trump selected Pence as his running mate. Pence then withdrew from Indiana’s gubernatorial election and Holcomb withdrew as the nominee for lieutenant governor. Holcomb decided to pursue the nomination for governor and was selected on the second ballot by the Indiana State Republican Central Committee, defeating Rep. Susan Brooks, Rep. Todd Rokita, and State Senator Jim Tomes.[22]
Holcomb chose Indiana State Auditor Suzanne Crouch as his running mate. They faced 2012 Democratic nominee and former Indiana House Speaker John R. Gregg and his running mate, State Representative Christina Hale. After an unprecedented 106-day campaign, Holcomb defeated Gregg, 51.4% to 45.4%. He ran slightly behind the Trump-Pence ticket, which carried Indiana with 56 percent of the vote.
2020
Holcomb was reelected governor in 2020, defeating former state health commissioner Woody Myers with 57% of the vote. He received the most votes for governor in Indiana history.[23]
First term
After winning the election, Holcomb announced his agenda for the upcoming Indiana General Assembly legislative session. What Holcomb calls his “Next Level Agenda” is based on five “pillars”: strengthening and diversifying Indiana’s economy, strengthening Indiana’s infrastructure, strengthening education and workforce training, strengthening public health and attacking addiction and providing great government service at an exceptional value to taxpayers. He has said that civility is the foundation on which the other pillars are based.[24]
Holcomb’s first act as governor was creating the office of drug prevention, treatment and enforcement and tasking that office with tackling the opioid crisis and other addiction issues in Indiana. Additionally, early in his first term, Holcomb pardoned Keith Cooper, who served eight years in prison after being wrongfully convicted of an armed robbery; declared a disaster emergency at the East Chicago Superfund Site; and ended contract discussions between the Indiana Finance Authority and Agile Networks to manage Indiana’s communications infrastructure, including cell towers.[25]
Holcomb has made attracting international investment and opening more overseas markets for Hoosier-produced goods a priority. Since taking office, he has led 11 international economic development trips visiting with government, business, education, military and nonprofit leaders in the United Kingdom (as governor-elect), France, Hungary, Japan, India, Canada, Israel, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, Switzerland, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg, South Korea and China. He has also visited Hoosier servicemen and women and members of the United States Diplomatic Corps serving overseas.[26]
Holcomb’s international engagement strategy has resulted in foreign direct investment (FDI) into Indiana increasing 300% since 2017. In recognition of his efforts, the Indianapolis-based International Center named Holcomb its 2018 International Citizen of the Year.[27]
In April 2017, the Indiana legislature approved Holcomb’s request for higher fuel taxes and BMV registration fees to fund infrastructure spending, primarily on road maintenance and construction. The law went into effect on July 1, 2017, and is projected to raise on average $1.2 billion per year through 2024.[28]
In the first quarter of 2019, the National Journal reported that Holcomb’s reelection faced serious challenges. It ranked him number 10 on its endangered list, writing, “Holcomb is facing potential match-ups with former state health commissioner Woody Myers and state Senator Eddie Melton.”[29] By the end of the second quarter, his approval rating had risen to 50%.[30]
In November 2019, the Center for Investigative Reporting reported that Holcomb had personally pressured an Indiana OSHA investigator to drop a worker fatality case against Amazon so that Indianapolis could have a better chance at being the home of Amazon’s HQ2 (a major new office). His office denied the allegations, saying that he had not attended the meeting with the OSHA commissioner and investigator.[31] Holcomb also said the accusations against him would pose a threat to Indiana’s “positive business climate” and demanded they be retracted.[32] Regardless of whether Holcomb was directly involved, OSHA eventually dropped the citations against Amazon’s fulfillment center and the case was reclassified as one of “employee misconduct” rather than a shortfall in training and safety procedures.[31]
In July 2020, Attorney General Curtis Hill accused Holcomb of overstepping his authority by issuing a statewide face mask mandate with criminal penalties. Hill said that only the legislature has the power under the Indiana constitution to create laws.[33] Holcomb vetoed the laws passed in the special session, and the legislature overrode his vetoes. But on June 2, 2022, the Indiana Supreme Court sided with Holcomb. Citing the state constitution, the court found it was the legislature, not Holcomb, that had overstepped its authority. Chief Justice Loretta Rush wrote in the unanimous opinion, “Simply put, absent a constitutional amendment … the General Assembly cannot do what HEA-1123 permits, … our Constitution authorizes only the Governor to call a special session, the General Assembly can set additional sessions—but only by fixing their length and frequency in a law passed during a legislative session and presented to the Governor.”[34]
Second term
Holcomb was inaugurated to a second term on January 11, 2021.
In March 2022, Holcomb vetoed H.E.A. 1041, a bill passed by the Indiana General Assembly that would prohibit transgender women from participating in state-sanctioned girls’ sports. He cited the bill’s low probability of surviving judicial scrutiny and the lack of pressing concern as his reasons for vetoing it.[35] On May 24, the General Assembly overrode Holcomb’s veto, passing the bill into law.[36] In the spring of 2023, Holcomb signed several anti-LGBTQ+ bills into law, including a bill that bans gender-affirming care for transgender minors,[37] a bill that requires that parents be immediately notified if a transgender student comes out to a teacher and prohibits discussions of “human sexuality” up to grade 3,[38] and a bill that bans gender-affirming surgery for inmates in Indiana Department of Corrections facilities.[39]
Holcomb called a special session shortly before the Supreme Court of the United States overturned Roe v. Wade in order to address tax rebates amid the early 2020s inflation surge. After Roe was overturned, the Indiana General Assembly passed a near-total ban on abortion procedures, allowing exceptions only in the case of rape up to 10 weeks into pregnancy and threat to the mother’s life. Holcomb signed the bill, S.B. 1, into law. The ban on abortion procedures was blocked in court shortly after going into effect in September 2022. The Indiana Supreme Court ultimately allowed the ban to take effect in a June 30, 2023 ruling.[40]
In August 2022, Holcomb led a trade delegation to Taiwan in an effort to strengthen economic ties between Taiwan and Indiana. The delegation also visited South Korea. The visit came after several high-profile visits by U.S. officials to Taiwan, leading to increased tension between the U.S. and the People’s Republic of China.[41]
Personal life
Holcomb’s wife, Janet, runs a family business in Madison County, Indiana.[42] They have no children, and owned a miniature schnauzer, Henry Holcomb, who was known as the “First Dog of Indiana”.[43]
In December 2022, Holcomb was hospitalized with a sudden case of pneumonia.[44]
