First elected to House in 2012, Walorski had served on the House Ways & Means Committee and was ranking member on the house Ethics Committee and the Subcomittee on Worker and Family Support.
She began her career as a reporter at WSBT-TV South Bend.
“NAB is deeply saddened by the tragic passing of Rep. Walorski and her staffers, Zachery Potts and Emma Thomson," said National Association of Broadcasters President Curtis LeGeyt. "As a former broadcaster, Rep. Walorski had a first-hand appreciation for the importance of local radio and television stations to her constituents, and we greatly valued working with her to improve the lives of Indianans and the American people. NAB and broadcasters everywhere extend our deepest sympathies to her loved ones, friends and staff.”
