On August 7, Messmer wrote: "Honored to join the Southern Indiana Development Commission to talk about my work in Congress to ensure #IN08 remains the best place to open and run a business! https://t.co/vuqgBZmSgr".

Messmer has served as U.S. Representative for Indiana’s 8th Congressional District since being elected in November 2024. The district covers much of southwestern Indiana and includes several manufacturing hubs as well as rural communities. As part of his role in Congress, Messmer regularly meets with local organizations such as the Southern Indiana Development Commission—a group focused on economic growth across the region—and offers constituent services including assistance navigating federal agencies. These efforts are consistent with standard practices among members of Congress seeking both community input and economic development within their districts.
