Another Republican lawmaker retires from Indiana Legislature

State Rep. Donna Schaibley will not seek reelection to her central Indiana seat and will retire next year after a decade in the Indiana House, becoming the latest Republican legislator to either pass on reelection or resign from their seats.

Schaibley, a Carmel Republican, said Thursday she will complete her current term and not seek reelection in 2024 to House District 24, which includes portions of Boone and Hamilton counties.

INDIANA HOUSE JUDICIARY CHAIRMAN JERRY TORR TO RETIRE AFTER NEARLY 3 DECADES

Shaibley was first elected to the Indiana House in 2014 and currently serves as vice chair of the House Public Health Committee. She cited among her accomplishments legislation she authored this year that "lowers patient and employer health care costs by creating greater price transparency and by providing oversight of Indiana’s largest hospital systems."

Shaibley joins fellow Carmel Republican Rep. Jerry Torr as the latest Indiana GOP legislators to not seek reelection. Torr announced in early October that he would not seek reelection and would retire next year after 28 years in the House.
