Support Educators – Our teachers deserve more than words of thanks; they deserve real support. That means investing in classrooms with the resources students need, lowering class sizes so teachers can focus on individual learning, and increasing compensation so educators don’t have to work second jobs just to make ends meet. When we support teachers, we strengthen our schools, our communities, and the future of every Hoosier child.

Support First Responders – Our police officers, firefighters, and emergency workers run toward danger when the rest of us run away. They deserve the best training, modern tools, and fair compensation for the risks they take to keep us safe. I will work to fully support first responders and ensure their families are cared for as they protect ours.

Protect Seniors – No one who worked their entire life should live in fear of losing their home or struggling to pay basic bills. Seniors on fixed incomes deserve stability and peace of mind. I will fight to keep property taxes low, protect retirement security, and make sure older Hoosiers can age with dignity and independence.

Cut Wasteful Spending – Hoosiers work hard for every dollar they earn, and government should treat taxpayer money with the same respect. I will fight to eliminate wasteful spending and ensure that your hard-earned tax dollars are used wisely — funding essential services and strengthening our communities, not lining the pockets of special interests.

Grow Local Jobs – Indiana families need access to good-paying jobs close to home. I will work to attract new businesses to District 40 while strengthening opportunities for small businesses and entrepreneurs. By investing in workforce training and reducing burdensome regulations, we can create a strong local economy that supports working families and keeps talent here in Indiana.
