This week marks National Work Zone Awareness Week. In 2024, there were around 7,000 crashes in work zones in our state including 30 deaths. Remember to continue focusing on the road during work zones and plan accordingly to traffic and construction. Your efforts will tremendously impact our infrastructure and keep all Hoosiers safe. #INForAll
Today, I served as a conferee on the Conference Committee discussing HB 1001, the state budget. We had a productive conversation informed by the revenue forecast released last week. It’s clear we need to explore ways to reduce spending and reprioritize the budget to ensure critical programs—like Medicaid and public education—are adequately funded. I look forward to continued discussions to make sure Hoosiers are well supported by their government. #INForAll

Today, I voted yes on HB 1001, the state budget. This bill includes important investments for Northern Indiana, such as funding for the South Shore Line, support for the Midwest Continental Divide Commission and language for an Innovation Development District—which will help drive economic development in the South Bend area—and significant resources for mental health. While the budget is not yet in its final form, I’m pleased to support this version and look forward to ongoing discussions to continue improving the bill.![]()
