We joined Hoosiers for a rally against redistricting on Friday as we enter month 3 of fighting off an absurd scheme to rig the 2026 elections. The VP wouldn't have had to come back to Indiana to twist arms and threaten the Statehouse GOP if not for YOU and how loudly you've made your voice known.

With utility and housing costs on the rise, Hoosiers deserve our pay to go up relative to the rest of the country - NOT down.

Hoosiers are working harder than ever before but making less money than other Americans.

According to the American Community Survey, Indiana's median income was ranked 38th in 2023, but we dropped to 42nd last year.

Gov. Braun just said he believes the property tax conversation has quieted, and he has found a solution to high bills. But homeowners save little, local governments cut services, and our schools lose funding. Is this what "solutions" look like to the Braun administration?!

Special session to draw new congressional maps just to follow the orders of out-of-state special interests: 👎😡🤢

Today, we remember the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and honor the first responders and all who showed extraordinary courage that day.

Twenty-four years later, we carry forward their memory and the resilience that defines our nation.

We will never forget.

Indiana Republicans should focus on the issues Hoosiers really care about.

Call Republican leaders to tell them to solve your problems, not redraw our congressional maps.

🚨 Gov.Braun - (317) 232-4567
🚨 Speaker Huston- (317) 232-9677
🚨 Pro Tem Bray - (317) 232-9400

Indiana Republicans are treating big corporations like family while putting actual Hoosier families on the hook for corporate business expenses.
