Our community demanded congressional action on the climate crisis. That’s why I was so proud to join my Democratic colleagues and President Biden to pass the groundbreaking Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), the largest-ever investment in climate action.
Open enrollment for healthcare.gov is open now until December 15th. But why is access to health insurance so important?
Indiana is receiving billions of dollars for new roads, bridges, clean drinking water, internet access, and more – and it’s all thanks to a bill I voted for in my senior role on the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee and that President Biden signed into law 2 years ago today.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law has been lauded by experts as one of the most monumental investments in our nation’s infrastructure in history, and it’s not hard to see why. Here are just some of the ways the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is delivering for the Hoosier state:
As we commemorate Veteran’s Day this week, we also recognize the ways we can continue supporting those who have sacrificed so much for our country. In 2022, I voted for the PACT Act, the most significant expansion of benefits and services for toxic-exposed Veterans in more than 30 years.
Today is the start of open enrollment for healthcare.gov – and thanks to Democrats’ work last Congress, Americans can save more money than ever on their health insurance.
Winter can mean dangerously cold temperatures for many people. It can also mean households have to face an impossible choice: paying for home heating and cooling or paying for other household essentials, like food and medical care.
No one should have to make this choice. That’s why I’m proud to announce Indiana has been awarded $75 million to assist low-income families ahead of the winter season through the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP).
For years, the price of health care services and prescription drugs have soared, with little relief for working families. That’s why progressives in Congress and the Biden administration have been working hard to lower health care costs for those who need it most. We’re already seeing the effects of that fight. In fact, millions of Americans are already saving money on the medication they need — especially seniors.
September 15 through October 15 is Hispanic Heritage Month, a time to celebrate the history and contributions of Hispanic Americans. This month recognizes individuals with roots in Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America – a group rich in diversity, and united by common desires.
It’s hard to forget that devasting day.
On September 11, 2001, our nation was changed forever. While 22 years have passed, the physical and emotional scars remain.
Unfortunately, even today, 9/11 first responders still struggle to receive the healthcare they need to address injuries and illnesses sustained from the attacks and the long aftermath of searches and recovery. Everyone deserves access to lifesaving healthcare – especially those who sacrificed so much for us.
While Labor Day is considered a welcome day off and a transition from summer to fall, it’s important to remember what the day represents: the importance of the American worker.
The labor movement was instrumental in advocating for livable wages, safety standards, employee healthcare and benefits, and more. I’m proud of the work we’ve done to build on that movement and advance the cause of workers’ rights over the last two years under President Biden.
