Democrats are working to lower energy costs for families, but the Trump administration has reversed many of these policies, causing Hoosiers to pay 16% more than the national average on their electric bill.

BREAKING: The House just passed bipartisan legislation to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits and slow skyrocketing health care costs. This is what happens when we work together.

Political violence is never the answer. Today marks 15 years since the horrific attack on Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords that killed six innocent people. As a target of political violence myself, I proudly support the resolution honoring the survivors and lives lost on this day in 2011 in Tucson.

Protesting is not a crime. It should never get you killed.
I’m a former member of law enforcement & have been in dangerous situations. The ICE agent who shot a demonstrator in Minnesota was not justified.

5 years ago today, violent insurrectionists attacked the U.S. Capitol to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. Political violence has no place in this country. Thank you to the brave police officers who put their lives on the line to protect and serve our country.

Sending prayers to my Hoosier colleague Congressman Baird and his wife Danise after a car accident. I’m glad to hear they are stable and wish them both a full recovery.

We are just a few days into the new year, and health care costs have skyrocketed because Republicans let ACA tax credits expire on January 1.

Trump’s move in Venezuela is a dangerous misuse of taxpayer dollars and an intolerable abuse of power. Only Congress has the power to declare war.
How can Trump pay for the forced removal of another country’s president—but can’t pay for children’s healthcare in his own country?

The president has ended protected status of Ethiopians, Haitians, and Somalis and will deport thousands — including children who grew up in the US. Many will be forced to return to countries still experiencing armed conflict and instability. This decision puts lives at risk.

UPDATE: We now have enough signatures to vote on extending Affordable Care Act tax credits and lower health care costs. Health care should be a human right, not a financial burden.
Speaker Johnson must bring this legislation to the floor for a vote NOW.

Today I asked the FAA Administrator about DOGE’s short-sighted cuts to grant funding for aviation projects, including upgrades for the solar farm at the Indianapolis Airport. This grant should not have been terminated and I've urged the Administrator to review and restore this funding.

These violent threats from my colleague in the House of Representatives are vile and dangerous, and we all have a responsibility to call it out.
A sitting Member of Congress openly endorsing violence against millions of American Muslims is wrong.

As families around the world pause to celebrate Hanukkah, we remember those hurt by the deadly attack at Bondi Beach and reaffirm our commitment to fighting antisemitism. May the light outshine the darkness. Happy Hanukkah.

My thoughts are with the victims and families impacted by the deadly attack at Bondi Beach as members of the Jewish community gathered to observe Hanukkah. No one should fear coming together to celebrate their faith.

A majority of Hoosiers didn’t agree with this unfair map. Hoosiers do things very differently. We don’t like being told what to do by DC insiders.

I introduced the Bipartisan SAFE Drugs Act with Rep Rudy Yakym to protect patients from untested, unapproved, and potentially dangerous mass compounded drugs. Our bill will enhance transparency and give the FDA the resources they need to keep families safe.

It’s clear that these proposed Congressional maps were drawn by someone who doesn’t know the first thing about our state. Hoosiers don’t want mid-decade redistricting and won’t stand for it.

Indiana's mid-decade redistricting would break apart communities and weaken the voice of voters. Hoosiers deserve fair maps and transparency that puts people first, not DC insiders.
