Who is my U.S. representative in IN-05?

I don't have reliable, up-to-date information about who currently represents Indiana's 5th Congressional District, and this is exactly the kind of fact that changes with elections and can shift due to redistricting, resignations, or special elections.

Here's how to find your current representative accurately:

1. **Visit the House website:** Go to **house.gov** and use the "Find Your Representative" tool—just enter your ZIP code.

2. **Check your Board of Elections:** Your state or county elections website will list your current officials.

3. **Search directly:** A quick web search for "Indiana 5th district representative" from a reliable news or government source will give you the current answer.

I'd rather point you to an authoritative source than risk giving you an outdated or incorrect name. If you have other questions about how congressional representation works, I'm happy to help with that!
