New year, same fight.
We are MADVoters, an Indiana volunteer-powered group. We aren’t part of a national organization or a political party. We’re dedicated Hoosiers who believe a more just and thriving state is possible when voters are empowered and engaged, and we’re here to help make that happen.

ILEA’s Recommendation a Blow to Democracy for IPS
The future of Indianapolis Public Schools (IPS) is in jeopardy. A state-mandated commission recommended ending elected school boards in the IPS district, and with that, taxpayers’ voice and choice in ...

My Op-Ed about education and the attack on Indianapolis Public Schools by the ILEA is out on @madvoters Indiana

I believe the ILEA recommendations to remake IPS in the charter school governance model fundamentally destroy IPS & democracy using propaganda and […]

But the 9-member ILEA board is mostly appointed by Mayor Hogsett and dominated by pro-charter interests."

That's right, you read it correctly. Their admitted 'imperfect solution' creates a completely new entity and appoints an unelected board to take over IPS assets and autonomy."

These are all recommendations to the state, so they're not a done deal, but ILEA showed their entire asshole. Central Indiana DSA, MadVoters, the People's Clergy, NAACP, IPS principals, teachers, and students; they all had their voices go unheard.

From our latest MADVoices essay covering the defeat of redistricting: “This victory is a reminder that democracy isn’t defended only in elections... When people show up together, even entrenched systems can be challenged.”

Should you happen to be in #Indy today, think about taking a late lunch and joining MADvoters at the statehouse! 🙏

✊ Pack the Statehouse with us at 12:30 on Thursday 12/11.

The lawmakers who support redistricting can’t tell us who paid for the maps, when they got the maps, or how the maps were developed…

Enough with the games and power plays. Hoosiers deserve transparency, accountability, and honesty.

Indiana Senate leaders are pushing mid-decade redistricting to lock in a 9–0 Congressional map. Take action with MADVoters No Cheaters in Democracy campaign: madvoters.org/no-cheaters
This isn’t normal redistricting after a Census — it’s an early, mid-decade scheme to redraw Indiana’s Congressional districts years ahead of schedule so politicians can pick their voters instead of voters choosing their leaders.
