Frye has been dealing with multiple health issues in recent years, and the seven-term lawmaker said he’s stepping down to focus on his well-being and his family.
Frye was first elected in 2010, in a Republican wave that saw the GOP capture the majority in the House of Representatives.
The longtime Indianapolis firefighter led on fire safety and first responder issues at the Statehouse, including as chair of the House Veterans Affairs and Public Safety Committee. This session, he led an effort to exempt military pay from the state's income tax.
