Former Indiana Commerce Secretary Brad Chambers announced Thursday that he’s entered the state’s 2024 governor’s race, joining several Republicans in seeking the party’s nomination for the state’s top post.
Chambers said he filed paperwork with the Indiana secretary of state’s office formally creating a gubernatorial campaign committee. He joins what’s expected to be an GOP Gov. Eric Holcomb cannot seek reelection because of term limits.
Chambers stepped down as state commerce secretary and head of the Indiana Economic Development Corporation on Aug. 6 after two years in that post. He said in a statement that during his tenure the IEDC “secured over $33 billion of committed capital investments ... including an unprecedented $22.2 billion last year alone.”
Chambers said his leadership of the state’s economic development efforts saw Indiana attract new industries, “including semiconductor and electric vehicle battery manufacturing.” “As Indiana’s Secretary of Commerce, the last two years, I have witnessed firsthand how important leadership, vision, urgency and aspiration are to the future of Indiana,” he said. “I am running for Governor because I want Hoosiers of today and Hoosiers of tomorrow to believe that Indiana offers an opportunity for an excellent life.”
