Bill Summary
State comptroller. Changes certain references from "auditor of state" to: (1) "state comptroller (referred to as "auditor of state" in the Constitution of the State of Indiana)"; or (2) "state comptroller (auditor of state)". Requires "state comptroller (auditor of state)" to be listed on the 2026 general election ballot.
AI Summary
This bill makes several technical changes to Indiana state law, primarily replacing references to "auditor of state" with "state comptroller (referred to as 'auditor of state' in the Constitution of the State of Indiana)". The changes affect multiple sections of Indiana Code, including election regulations, ballot listings, and retirement provisions. Specifically, the bill requires that in the 2026 general election, the ballot will list the position as "State Comptroller (Auditor of State)". The changes do not alter the fundamental responsibilities of the office, but instead update terminology to reflect a shift in how the position is officially named. The bill mandates that after June 30, 2023, the office will use the title "state comptroller" in all official communications and business, while ensuring that existing documents and references remain valid. These modifications appear to be largely administrative, ensuring consistency in how the state's financial oversight position is referenced across various legal documents and election materials.
