𝐈 𝐕𝐎𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐓𝐎𝐃𝐀𝐘 & 𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐀𝐆𝐄 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐘 𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐈𝐁𝐋𝐄 𝐇𝐎𝐎𝐒𝐈𝐄𝐑 𝐓𝐎 𝐕𝐎𝐓𝐄! 🗳️🇺🇸 Public education, democracy, affordability and the financial security of working families are all on the ballot.

This is what community looks like: neighbors helping neighbors. When hardship comes our way, we meet it the way Hoosiers always have: together, with compassion, resilience and an unwavering commitment to leave no neighbor behind.

I’m grateful for the resilience of our community & the incredible volunteers, first responders, elected officials, Washington Township Schools, American @RedCross of IN, @indydpw, @MarionCo_EM & @IDHS working around the clock to help our neighbors during this difficult time.

I’ve also spent a few hours volunteering alongside neighbors at Hohlt Park in the Town of Rocky Ripple & visiting the emergency shelter at the former Northview Middle School serving residents impacted by flooding in the Crystal Lake and Ravenswood neighborhoods.

𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐌𝐔𝐍𝐈𝐓𝐘 𝐈𝐍 𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 ❤️ Earlier today, I was in communication with the @IDHS to get updates on relief efforts in Marion County, including coordination with FEMA to secure federal assistance. I will continue to share updates from IDHS in the coming days.

Thank you to every volunteer, staff member, elected official, and community partner who dedicates their time to supporting Hoosiers in times of need. Your service makes a real difference. @ymca @ymcaindy

As inspiring as today was, it also served as a reminder that in the wealthiest nation on Earth, no one should have to wait in a food pantry line to feed their family.

𝐇𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝐅𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐆𝐨 𝐇𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐲 I had the opportunity to volunteer at the @GleanersFBIndy hosted by Avondale Meadows YMCA helping distribute food to our neighbors alongside an incredible team of volunteers, staff, community & elected leaders.

Love > hate. Hope > fear. That’s Hoosier Hospitality.

Every generation is called to carry this work forward & our generation is no different. We’ll reject hate without becoming hateful/reject fear without becoming fearful. We’ll stand together, organize & vote because loving America means fighting for an America that includes all.

It challenged a corrupt political system that treated some Americans as second-class citizens.

The Civil Rights Movement didn’t defeat the ideology of hate with fear. It defeated it by organizing. It helped secure the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, and inspired an era that expanded opportunity and dignity for millions of Americans.

That’s the Indiana we’re building: one where every person is treated with dignity, every faith is respected, and every neighbor belongs.

Today, we know better, and we won’t be intimidated into repeating it. Hoosiers deserve leaders focused on lowering costs, improving schools, expanding opportunity, and protecting our democracy, not manufacturing fear to distract from the issues families face every day.

D.C. Stephenson didn’t build his movement overnight. It grew by convincing people to fear their neighbors, blame immigrants and religious minorities, and wrap hatred in the language of patriotism, faith, and “family values.” History rejected them.

Letting Hoosier Children Go Hungry Is Not a Family Value. Statehouse Republicans committed Indiana to taxpayer-funded tax breaks for billion-dollar corporations for up to 50 YEARS, but they won’t commit to feeding Hoosier children for ONE SUMMER.
