Indiana's state treasurer is the latest candidate entering the race for the congressional seat being given up by Republican Rep. Susan Brooks.

Indiana's secretary of state, auditor and treasurer were sworn into office Monday. All three women won re-election bids in November.

Mitchell was first elected as treasurer in 2014. She also worked in the office for seven years before that. She highlighted her experience in the office during the campaign.

Democrat John Aguilera is challenging incumbent Republican State Treasurer Kelly Mitchell who was elected to the office in 2014.

State lawmakers launched INvestABLE last year. It helps people with disabilities build financial independence.

Mitchell says her plans for a second term would include what she calls a "fiscally conservative approach" to state investments and protecting taxpayer dollars.
