We are pleased to announce the endorsement of 27 legislators from across Indiana. They join a growing list of Republican leaders backing Jon. So as a recap, we've seen Governor Daniels endorse Jon, then the statewide elected officials came on board along with 19 Indiana mayors.
Here's what the highest ranking Republicans in the Indiana General Assembly, Senate President Pro Tem David Long and House Republican Leader Brian Bosma, had to say about Jon Costas.
“As an attorney focusing on elder law and an elected official, Jon is highly qualified to serve as Indiana's consumer protection watchdog,” House Republican Leader Brian Bosma said. “Protecting the rights and consumer interests of Hoosiers is a critical issue, and I very much look forward to working with Jon Costas as a partner in this effort.”
“Jon Costas has the experience, judgment and leadership abilities required of Indiana’s next Attorney General,” Long said. “As an attorney, Jon has handled complex litigation, and as Mayor he’s built an impressive record of accomplishment. I know he will bring that same level of dedication and commitment to the people of Indiana as Attorney General.”
