In Their Words
What they have said, on the record
“There is ample evidence of cybersecurity concerns, surveillance, and the risk of rogue AI agents. Instead of addressing these concerns, Speaker Johnson is giving a free pass to tech companies. The pace of AI development means these are urgent concerns. AI needs to be regulated - and we need to act now.”
“Republican leadership canceled votes Thursday instead of taking action on AI.”
“My top priorities are lowering costs; bringing money home for Indianapolis for better roads, highways, and sidewalks; and defeating Trump's extreme agenda — including ICE's lawless reign of terror.”
“I'm working to make life more affordable and defeat Donald Trump's extreme agenda. Trump promised to lower costs on 'day one,' but instead, he eliminated Democratic programs that lowered costs and put our economy in crisis. The government should make life better for hardworking families – not continue giving tax breaks to billionaires.”
“We get casework from other congressional districts around the state because our office has a reputation of being very efficient and yielding results, whether that's getting Hoosiers back into the country or resolving an issue with Social Security”
“In fact, I have voted directly against the interests of donors.”

“I have never, and I will never, allow anyone to impact my vote, other than the people of Indiana's 7th Congressional District.”
“ICE is considering Indianapolis for a new detention facility. Here's my message to ICE: you're not welcome. I've repeatedly voted against ICE funding under Trump's cruel regime. Government funding should be used for housing, food deserts, and improving our roads — not to detain children and murder U.S. citizens.”
“The American people already know what the state of our union is. It is marked by frustration, rising costs, and deep exhaustion. Families are stretched thin by higher prices. Communities are disturbed by fatal immigration enforcement tactics. And working people are watching the wealthiest Americans benefit while the middle class is left behind.”
