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.

The House is expected to vote this week to restore ACA tax credits. All Members of Congress need to do the right thing for the American people.

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.

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.

My office assists with securing Medicare, Social Security, and veterans’ benefits, plus connecting families in need to local resources.

Redistricting puts these services at risk.

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.
December 5, 2025 at 9:20 PM
My office provides essential services to Indianapolis residents, from securing housing, Medicare and Social Security benefits, and connections to local services.

DC consultants came up with a new congressional map that makes no sense for our state. 

•Indianapolis would go from 2 districts to 4 
•Rural counties would have to share their rep with Indy
•Indy would get fewer resources and services — and so would rural areas.
December 2, 2025 at 10:02 PM
It’s clear DC consultants who don't know the first thing about Indiana drew this map. These districts: 

🕑span 2 different time zones
🚗would take 3 hours to visit your congressperson's office—which your tax dollars pay for.

Thanksgiving is a time to gather, not worry about high grocery costs. Under the Trump administration, prices continue to increase and people are feeling it. Working families deserve better.

I’m proud to represent Indianapolis—which means representing our community’s needs.

No one should have to worry about heat in the winter. IndyEAP offers assistance with energy bills for eligible Marion County households. Go to indyeap.org to check eligibility.

Thank you to the bold students from Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School for writing to me about the importance of protecting immigrant communities. Your voices matter, and our future is bright with leaders like you. I will continue working to ensure fairness and opportunity for all.

I am honored to serve as the Ranking Member of House Aviation Subcommittee. There was perhaps no better reminder of the importance of safe, reliable air travel than earlier this month, when travelers experienced delays and cancelations at major airports because of the government shutdown. L

The Indiana Senate has said it will not vote on unfair redistricting.

To the legislators who stood firm, faith leaders, concerned citizens, organizers, and volunteers: thank you. This is what happens when we make our voices heard.

Can you afford to pay $17,000 more in 2026 for the same health insurance you have now? Of course not.
November 7, 2025 at 9:49 PM
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.

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.
November 3, 2025 at 5:33 PM
My district in Indianapolis is the only majority-minority district. Mid-decade redistricting is just an attempt to silence dissent.
