Washington, D.C. - Congressman Greg Pence of Indiana's 6th District has made the decision not to file for reelection. In a statement released today, Congressman Pence expressed his gratitude to his constituents and outlined his reasons for stepping down from his position.

"In 2017, I ran for Congress because I was Ready to Serve Again. As a former Marine Officer, I approached the job with purpose," said Congressman Pence. "After three terms, I've made the decision to not file for reelection. For the remainder of my term this year, our team will continue to focus on delivering outstanding constituent services. To the voters in Indiana's 6th District - it is a privilege and honor to represent you in our Nation's capital."

Congressman Greg Pence, the brother of former Vice President Mike Pence, has been a staunch advocate for conservative values in Congress. Representing Indiana's 6th District, which includes Columbus, Indiana, Pence has served on the House Energy and Commerce Committee, working to promote policies that align with the interests of his constituents.

Pence's decision not to seek reelection comes as a surprise to many, as he has been a dedicated public servant for several terms. However, his decision to prioritize delivering exceptional constituent services during his remaining time in office shows his commitment to serving the people of Indiana's 6th District.

As news of Congressman Pence's announcement spreads, speculation about potential candidates to fill his seat in the upcoming election has already begun. The 6th District, known for its conservative values, will undoubtedly attract a strong field of contenders who will vie for the opportunity to represent the district in Congress.

While Congressman Pence's decision not to seek reelection marks the end of an era, his legacy as a champion of conservative Hoosier values will continue to resonate in Indiana's 6th District. As constituents and colleagues reflect on his service, they will remember his dedication and the impact he had on shaping policy during his time in Congress.
