SCR 35: Urging the Governor to recognize the SOS Hand Signal.

SCR 35 is a concurrent resolution urging the Governor of Indiana to officially recognize the SOS Hand Signal as a valid method for requesting emergency assistance.

SB 524: The practice of law.

SB 524, now Public Law 43, changes the residency requirement for appointing Indiana's head of the Department of Law. It allows an Indiana resident from any county bordering the department's location (a contiguous county) to be appointed, rather than requiring them to reside in the same county. This specifically affects the Governor's appointment process for this state position. The bill does not alter the department's duties or create new legal standards; it only modifies the geographic residency rule for the appointee.
