Indiana's 6th congressional district is a congressional district in the U.S. state of Indiana. The district takes in a portion of eastern and central Indiana as of the 2020 census, including Columbus and Richmond, some of Cincinnati's Indiana suburbs, most of Indianapolis's southern suburbs, and a sliver of Indianapolis itself.

The district is currently represented by Republican Greg Pence. He is the brother of former U.S. Vice President Mike Pence, who represented this district before serving as Governor of Indiana and Vice President of the United States. Greg Pence was elected on November 6, 2018, after the previous incumbent Luke Messer announced his retirement to run for the U.S. Senate in 2018.[3] With a Cook Partisan Voting Index rating of R+19, it is one of the most Republican districts in Indiana.[2]
