The Debate: Is the federal government spending too much?
When I listen to my constituents voice their concerns about government spending, they're not focused just on whether it spends too much or too little, but also on whether it's being spent the right way. Government spending can be a force for good when it empowers everyday people to achieve their American dream.
As Indianapolis hosts the NCAA Tournament, it helps to remember what our community and our world were facing just one year ago.
Last March, the only madness to be found was in the frantic scramble to protect ourselves and our families from a little-known virus that was spreading out of control.
Indianapolis shut down most non-essential activity, large gatherings were banned, and Hoosiers turned inward. Even in those terrifying early days, we could not fully anticipate the devastation of the months to come.
If you've spent any time on Rep. André Carson's Twitter feed over the past two days, you probably noticed multiple pictures of a Lego figurine that bears a striking resemblance to President Donald Trump.
That's because Carson, in an attempt to demonstrate the charges against the president, used Legos to give detailed breakdowns of both articles of impeachment by having the toys act out what Trump is accused of doing.

THE DEBATE: Are the Democrats correct to be pursuing articles of impeachment against President Trump?
Serving as the representative for Indiana's 7th Congressional District remains the honor of my life, and I've never taken the gravity of this position for granted. Every day, I seek to address and uplift the needs, concerns and ideals of my constituents.
In our community, we believe in the Hoosier values of equality, fairness and integrity—particularly the idea that in our society, no one is above the law.
