Messmer is a Republican member of the Indiana State Senate, representing the 48th district since November 19, 2014. Messmer is a former member of the Indiana House of Representatives, representing three terms for the 63rd district from November 18, 2008 to November 18, 2014.[1][2] He previously served on the Holy Family School Board from 2001 to 2004. He served as its president from 2003 to 2004. Messmer supported the state mandated purchase of syngas through coal gasification technology.[3] Developers of Leucadia National proposed a $2.6 billion syngas plant in Rockport, Indiana. Under the terms of the deal endorsed by Messmer, the state of Indiana would have bought syngas under a 30-year contract and then mandate that utilities within the state pass on any losses from the transaction on to Hoosier customers.[4] Gas from the plant would make up about 17 percent of the state's supply. The deal received criticism due to government intrusion in the energy markets, and for forcing consumers to sign up for risky long-term gas purchases at prices substantially higher than market prices.[5][6] Questions were also raised due to Leucadia National hiring Mark Lubbers to promote the deal. Lubbers is a former aide and close friend of former governor Mitch Daniels.[7] The project was ultimately panned by the state legislature in 2013.[8] References1. ^https://www.ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.html?RaceID=483857 2. ^https://www.ourcampaigns.com/RaceDetail.html?RaceID=757597 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.in.gov/gov/3047.htm|title=Indiana advances leadership in clean coal technology|publisher=Governor's Office|date=March 2009|accessdate=2012-02-015|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110316055947/http://www.in.gov/gov/3047.htm|archivedate=2011-03-16|df=}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.indianaeconomicdigest.net/main.asp?SectionID=31&ArticleID=63969|title=Vectren: Shale-gas boom makes Rockport coal-to-gas deal risky|publisher=Indiana Economic Digest|date=February 14, 2012|accessdate=2012-02-15|author=Bradner, Eric}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.courierpress.com/news/2012/feb/14/indiana-house-committee-hears-testimony-planned-ro/|title=Indiana House committee hears testimony on planned Rockport coal-to-gas plant|publisher=Evansville Courier & Press|date=February 15, 2012|accessdate=2012-02-15|author=Bradner, Eric}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.indy.com/posts/daniels-takes-natural-gas-bet-that-others-refused|title=Daniels takes natural gas bet that others refused|publisher=Indianapolis Star|date=January 2, 2011|accessdate=2012-02-15|author=Evanoff, Ted}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2011/05/lubbers-critics-of-coal-gasification.html|title=Lubbers: Critics Of Coal Gasification Deal Are Sneaky And Evil|publisher=Advance Indiana|date=May 1, 2011|accessdate=2012-02-15|author=Welsh, Gary}} 8. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.courierpress.com/news/2013/apr/27/no-headline---bradnercol/ | title=BRADNER: Rockport plant will never be | date=2013-04-27 | accessdate=2013-04-29 | author=Bradner, Eric}} External links
