WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican U.S. Rep. Jackie Walorski has been killed in a car accident in her northern Indiana District. The Elkhart County sheriff’s office says the 58-year-old Walorski and two staff members were inside a SUV that crossed the center line on a state highway and struck another car head-on Wednesday. Walorski, who served on the House Ways and Means Committee, was first elected to represent Indiana’s 2nd Congressional District in 2012. Indiana Republican U.S. Sen. Todd Young said he was “devastated” by Walorski’s death and that he’ll never forget her spirit and positive attitude.
