In NWI and across the country, abandoned properties harm neighborhoods by downgrading property values and increasing the risk of crime. I introduced legislation to improve the ability of local governments to tear down & revitalize blighted properties & promote more investments in our communities.

As a member of the House Appropriations Committee, I will continue to do all I can to support the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative and the tremendous benefits it provides for our environment, our communities, and our regional economy.

Today’s announcement should not come as a surprise to any Hoosier.  As a lifelong resident of Northwest Indiana, and as someone whose father proudly served in the Indiana State Senate, we can all appreciate the thoughtful and deliberate work that went into the 2022 redistricting process.

Everyday Americans cost of living are out of control. This is worth fighting for. Making sure that you can afford everyday life, and more important having access to health care is worth fighting for.

As your Member of Congress, I will continue working in a bipartisan way to reopen the government and restore funding for critical food benefits that our community relies on.
November 6, 2025 at 6:10 PM
The fact of the matter is people are going hungry because our government is shut down. I call upon Speaker Johnson to bring us back so that we can end the pain, the intentional pain, that is going on with families who are choosing between heat, medication and food.

As working families are facing skyrocketing energy costs, the loss of health care and food assistance programs, rising local taxes, and cuts to public safety, it’s unsurprising that Gov Braun has chosen to convene a special session on mid-decade redistricting at the request of President Trump.

I’ve often talked to you about how steel is a national security issue.  Well the fact of the matter is, so is farming.  In Northwest Indiana and Indiana it is the heartbeat of our economy.
