Grant Funding Announcement!
The United States is in its infrastructure decade – and I’m making sure Indianapolis is not left behind.
Today, I joined Mayor Hogsett, City-County Council President Osili, and other partners to announce Indianapolis will receive a $25 million Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) grant from the Department of Transportation (DOT).
Women in America today have less rights than they did 50 years ago.
Last year, the Dobbs v. Jackson decision overturning Roe v. Wade triggered an avalanche of harm, chaos, and confusion, leaving millions of Americans without abortion access.
We should never have to mark a day when a fundamental freedom was taken away. And yet, here we are.
Inflation is down!
This week brought good news for hardworking American families. Inflation is down, sitting below pre-pandemic levels at 1.1%. Yesterday, we learned annual consumer inflation has fallen by more than half over the last 11 months. You deserve some more breathing room – and that’s why I’ll keep voting to lower costs for families and invest in America.
Here's an update on what's been happening in Congress this week:
Friend,
Friend,
Every day, Americans rely on our nation’s roads, highways, public transit, and water systems.
That’s why I helped pass the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law two years ago – and thanks to this historic investment, we’re already delivering results.
Friend,
Most Americans are aware: if you owe money, you need to pay it.
Unfortunately, Republicans are currently pushing the United States towards a default by threatening not to pay our bills without severe cuts to lifesaving, essential programs. If they are successful, the results would be devastating for everyday Americans.
Friend,
I can’t believe I’m saying it, again. Our country has experienced yet another school shooting.
As a parent, I know the fear of sending your child off to school, especially in the aftermath of another senseless school shooting.
Instead of improving school safety, last week, Republicans passed an extreme, dangerous bill targeting our nation’s students, families, and educators, disguised as “parental rights,” that has no chance of passing the Senate.
Dear Friend,
With spring just around the corner, many young people and families are looking for camps, jobs, and other positive opportunities once school is out. Our community is fortunate to have many great resources that enrich our kids' lives. But the task of identifying those resources and finding the right fit can feel overwhelming.
