Bill > HCR0057

This Concurrent Resolution urges the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT), the state agency responsible for roads, to rename Interstate 65 (I-65), a major north-south highway, as it passes through Clark County, Indiana, to "Governor Jonathan Jennings Memorial Highway." The resolution highlights the significant contributions of Jonathan Jennings, who served as Indiana's first governor and played a key role in drafting the state's constitution, negotiating treaties that opened up land for settlement, and promoting internal improvements like roads and canals to boost the state's economy. The resolution also directs the Principal Clerk of the House of Representatives to send a copy of this request to the Commissioner of INDOT.
