Rep. Larry Bucshon MD

Congressman Larry Bucshon, M.D. represents the Eighth District of Indiana, which encompasses all or part of 21counties in Southern and West Central Indiana. Since coming to Congress, Larry has been a champion for advancing patient-centered health care reforms that will give patients and their doctors the freedom to make their own health care decisions as opposed to Washington bureaucrats. He has also been a leader in the fight to end the opioid epidemic, having been just one of eight lawmakers from around the nation recognized by the Coalition to Stop Opioid Overdose in 2016 for his work on the issue. Beyond health care, Larry has also been a recognized leader on transportation issues when he previously served on the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. The Evansville Courier and Press noted that during Larry’s time on the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, he “found himself taking leadership on transportation issues” and established himself “as a strong voice for highway projects such as Interstate 69.”
