INDIANAPOLIS - State Rep. Lindsay Patterson (R-Brookville) recently welcomed Austin Balser from Batesville, who attends Batesville High School, to the Statehouse where he participated in the Indiana House Page Program during the 2026 legislative session.
"The House Page Program is a fantastic opportunity for students to see state government in action and better understand how decisions are made at the Statehouse," Patterson said. "I was glad to welcome Austin and appreciate his interest in learning more about the legislative process."
