In 2013, the Indiana State Police reported the seizure of more than 1,800 meth labs across the state.
Properties seized as meth labs often still contain dangerous chemicals, offering unsafe living conditions for Hoosiers who don’t know the home has been contaminated.
This session Senator Randy Head sponsored, House Bill 1141 requiring the Indiana State Police to operate a database logging methamphetamine lab seizures, creating transparency for future renters and homeowners in our state.
This legislation encourages more transparent handling of information concerning contaminated homes, making renters and buyers more informed about where they are living. Ultimately, this bill and will create healthier, safer communities in Indiana.
