Tod & Dawn Bassler

Tod and Dawn support HEC, because they believe in the mission of HEC “and the importance of fighting to protect Indiana from damage by unwise policy decisions.”

Tod Bassler met his wife Dawn in West Lafayette, Indiana, where Tod was studying at Purdue University. They both love to travel and learn about life in other places, and this has inspired them to be passionate supporters of improving our transportation options here at home. “Our country’s population has almost doubled in my lifetime and less efficient low density travel options like automobiles just don’t cut it any more in urban areas,” Tod explains. “Our time is valuable and unrecoverable, and we shouldn’t waste it sitting at stop lights and in traffic jams.”
