Chairwoman Anne Hathaway has expressed her views on Governor Holcomb's decision to deploy the Indiana National Guard to the southern border. In a statement, she emphasized that "the border crisis brought on by the Biden administration is a national security issue that impacts all 50 states." Hathaway highlighted the significant impact of synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl, which are believed to largely enter from the southern border. She noted that these substances accounted for 71% of overdose deaths in Indiana between 2021 and 2022.

Hathaway affirmed the support of Hoosier Republicans for Governor Holcomb's actions and commended his leadership in addressing this pressing issue.
