Senator Goode introduced conference changes addressing two primary items: adjustments to appointments to the defense task force and language to align Indiana with FAA requirements to pursue designation as a drone testing site; she framed the designation as both civilian and military economic and national-security opportunity for the state.
A Senate rules committee advanced several conference committee reports and bills, including Senate Bill 256 (which incorporates House Bill 1099 and language to align the state with FAA drone testing designation), House Bill 1343 (adding provisions to House Bill 1040), Senate Bill 71 (reinstating a probate code study committee) and Senate Bill 14 (retired medical benefits and an increase to the 77 fund death benefit). Each measure was reported out of committee unanimously.
