INDIANAPOLIS — President Donald Trump talked with Indiana Senate Republicans Friday morning to discuss redistricting.
Molly Swigart, communications director for the Indiana Senate Republicans, confirmed to 13News that Senate Republicans were invited to join a call with President Trump on the congressional redistricting topic.
Swigart said Senate President Pro Tem Rodric Bray participated in the call.
The call, which Politico says took place during a private Indiana Senate Republican caucus meeting Oct. 17, reportedly involved Trump encouraging them to redraw the state's congressional maps to benefit Republicans ahead of the midterm election.
Vice President JD Vance has been to Indiana twice in recent months to meet with state lawmakers regarding redistricting.
