Hoosiers do things differently. We’re about collaboration, not division. We’re about independent thinking — not taking orders from Washington.

It’s simple. No healthcare protections, no vote from me.
Republicans’ spending bill will cause millions to face skyrocketing healthcare costs—and Americans just can’t afford it.

Today, we honor the brave men and women who have served and sacrificed for our nation and recommit to making sure our veterans have the food, housing, and healthcare they deserve. Thank you to all Hoosier veterans for your service.

It remains to be seen what happens in the Senate, but I will not vote in the House for a government funding measure that doesn't protect healthcare.
Without extending Affordable Care Act tax credits, millions will see health insurance costs double. Hardworking Americans just can't afford that.

Can you afford to pay $17,000 more in 2026 for the same health insurance you have now? Of course not.

This week, a constituent told me about a child they met at a local food giveaway.
A little girl looked around and said, "Look, Mom. We can make sandwiches now!"
No parent should have their grocery money snatched away from them. No child should ever go hungry.

Experiencing delayed flights and crowded airports? The Trump administration is slowing air traffic volume because of the shutdown, and because exhausted air traffic controllers aren't getting paid.

While President Trump is playing politics with SNAP benefits and while MAGA Republicans are preventing federal employees from receiving their paychecks, Hoosier families still have to eat.

UPDATE: Trump backtracked and threatened to refuse to release any SNAP funds.
Then the White House backtracked on Trump's backtrack.
He has the funds. He has a court order. The Trump administration must ensure 22 million children don't go hungry.

The Trump administration has the funds to FULLY sustain SNAP through November. But he’s only funding it partially, doing the bare minimum to satisfy a court order.
He’s playing politics with children’s hunger, and it’s despicable.

Indiana lawmakers will convene on Dec 1 to unfairly redraw our congressional districts 5 years early.
Just last week, my office helped an Indy resident get back $10,000 in Social Security payments. This is the type of work my office does every day — & what's at risk with this blatant power grab.

In the midst of grocery prices already increasing, President Trump and MAGA Republicans are choosing to suspend SNAP benefits in November leaving nearly 42 million Americans without food. It's time to stop playing politics with hungry seniors, children, and veterans and release the SNAP funds.

I sent out a survey to Indy residents to see how you'll be impacted by skyrocketing healthcare costs if Republicans don't act.
Thousands of you responded, and it's abundantly clear: Hoosiers just can't afford it.
