Richard Miller (R-Plymouth) announced that any citizen wishing to contact him throughout the 1986 legislative session may do so by phoning his Senate office toll free 1-800-382-9467.

According to Miller, the General Assembly re convened January 7 to complete the 30-day “short” legislative session. The session officially began when lawmakers gathered for their annual organizational day meeting November 19. “Because Indiana's General Assembly meets for only several months out of each year, legislative session days are usually very fastpaced and keep Senate members extremely busy with lawmaking duties and activities in our state's capitol", Miller commented. “Utilization of this toll free number will enable all of the citizens of Senate District 9 to continue to make known their opinions and concerns on issues confronting the Senate.” Senator Miller can also be reached by writing to him in care of the Indiana Senate, Statehouse, Indianapolis, 1nd.46204.
