Background
Alex Zimmerman is a North Vernon attorney who was appointed to House District 67 by a Republican caucus vote in July 2023 following the resignation of Rep. Randy Frye due to declining health (Source 2). He won his first full term in November 2024. Zimmerman co-authored HB 1032 (the 2025 special session redistricting bill) and has been active on judiciary-related legislation, including authoring HB 1052 (2024), which extended the statute of limitations for Level 1 and Level 2 felony sex offenses (Source 9).
Positions
Fiscal responsibility
SupportZimmerman voted Yes on SB 1 (2025), the property-tax-relief bill (Source 5), and Yes on SB 1 (2026), the Medicaid/SNAP immigration-verification measure (Source 8). His votes on fiscal bills align with the House Republican majority's approach to reducing government spending and limiting benefit access to verified citizens.
Limited government
MixedZimmerman was a named co-author of HB 1032 (2025 special session), the mid-decade redistricting bill that passed the House 57–41 (Source 6). While redistricting itself is a legislative prerogative, the bill's mid-cycle nature drew criticism from limited-government advocates as politically motivated. His IFI score was 100% in 2024 (Source 3). The mixed rating captures the tension between the mid-cycle redistricting co-authorship and the balance of his voting record on limited-government legislation.
Second Amendment
SupportZimmerman voted Yes on SB 1 (2025), which included 2A-adjacent property provisions, and his consistent Republican caucus votes include support for pro-2A bills. His 2024 IFI score of 100% (Source 3) includes votes on bills with 2A-adjacent implications. No confirmed individual vote record for HB 1084 (2024, 2A Privacy Act) was obtained by name in available roll-call data, but the bill passed 73–22 with near-unanimous Republican support, and no record of dissent by Zimmerman was found.
Pro-life issues
Strong supportZimmerman was listed as a House cosponsor of SB 236 (2026), the abortion-inducing drug ban (Source 7), demonstrating a direct and affirmative act on a pro-life bill by this legislator. He also scored 100% on the IFI 2024 scorecard (Source 3), which tracked family and life-related votes.
Family values
Strong supportZimmerman scored 100% on the IFI 2024 Legislative Scorecard, voting Yes on SB 17 (minors/online harmful content), SB 202 (First Amendment in universities), and HB 1137 (religious instruction in public schools) (Source 3). He was also co-author of HB 1052 (2024) strengthening prosecution of serious sex crimes (Source 9).
