Holcomb Takes Action to Assist Local Communities<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Indianapolis, Indiana (May 31, 2020)  \u2014 Governor Eric J. Holcomb today took these actions to protect Hoosiers, properties and businesses as the result of two nights of violence, following peaceful protests in Indiana. <\/p>\n<p>The Governor:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Signed <a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/docs\/State_of_Indiana\/Governor\/2020\/20-29_IN_XO.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Executive Order 20-29<\/a> to lift restrictions on local declarations of emergency that had been instituted as a part of the stay at home and back on track orders pertaining to COVID-19. This order, effective as of 11 a.m. today, allows local governments to place more stringent travel restrictions than the state has in place.<\/li>\n<li>Directed members of the Indiana National Guard to be on standby to assist communities across the state, if requested. Gov. Holcomb verbally activated the Indiana National Guard Reactionary Force company to be available to assist local communities Saturday, however no deployment was requested. Several hundred Guard members remain on standby.<\/li>\n<li>Ordered members of the Guard, supported by Indiana State Police, to establish a presence at state properties in Indianapolis to protect them from further damage.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cAt my order, the Indiana National Guard stands ready to assist local communities in need to protect the public and property, and I am deploying Guard members to protect state property beginning today,\u201d said Gov. Holcomb. \u201cOrganized protests have taken place across the state without incident but the events that have followed, particularly in Indianapolis, have devastated businesses, defaced public monuments that are centuries old, and resulted in loss of life.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/tag\/2020-may-george-floyd-demonstrations\/\">Read more AroundFortWayne posts on the 2020 May-June George Floyd Demonstrations<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/in\/trooper_noone.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Indiana State Police Trooper Chris Noone.
