This past session, my bill SB 317 (Medical Debt Relief) fell just short, with a vote of 23–26. While it did not pass, I successfully secured a summer study committee to further examine the issue — an important step forward as I prepare to reintroduce the legislation in the 2026 session. This fight is far from over.![]()
Indiana’s health care system is broken. Too many Hoosiers are buried under medical debt while hospitals, collection agencies, and law firms litigating on behalf of collection agencies insist the system is “working” and blame patients as “fiscally irresponsible.” That is unacceptable.![]()
SB 317 would:
✅ Prohibit liens on primary residences and wage garnishment for low- and fixed-income families
✅ Require hospitals to clearly communicate financial aid eligibility and payment plan options![]()
Medical debt is not like credit cards, mortgages or student loans. No one chooses cancer, Alzheimer’s or chronic illness — and no family should face a lifetime of financial hardship simply because they need care.![]()
I will continue fighting for Hoosier families because protecting people from the crushing weight of medical debt isn’t just good policy — it’s the right thing to do.

This week was filled with connection, community and hope for Indiana’s future.![]()
From the Education Forum at Oliver Baptist Church, to the Hurting Hearts event at St. Monica Catholic Church, to heartfelt conversations with neighbors in Northwest Indiana — I listened to your stories, your challenges, and your ideas for a a more fair, just, inclusive, and welcoming Indiana.![]()
Moments like these remind us that when we come together across communities, faiths and perspectives, we spark real change.
Your voice matters. Your engagement makes a difference. Together, we’re writing Indiana’s next chapter — one conversation at a time. 💬✨![]()
Let’s keep building the future, together. #INForAll
In June, I sent a letter to the Governor fiercely opposing the proposed AES rate hikes, which would significantly increase utility bills for Hoosier families, and I requested additional IURC public hearings so that residents can express their opposition/concerns.
Rising energy costs can place a heavy burden on hard-working families, especially those already struggling to make ends meet. Your voice is critical, so please attend these public meetings (details attached) to share how these rate increases would affect you, your family and your friends. #INForAll
💙 Hope. Unity. Action. 💙![]()
I’m deeply grateful to my colleague State Senator La Keisha Jackson, CAFE, Impd East District/IMPD News, fellow elected officials, civic and faith leaders, survivors, and every community member who came together for the Indy Far Eastside Peace Walk.![]()
We are united in standing against gun violence — especially the kind that robs our young people of their futures. Our message was clear and powerful: It takes a united community to lift our youth, show them they are loved, and invest in proven, evidence-based, life-changing solutions.![]()
When we walk together, we move toward peace. 🕊✨

Please share the message of hope with Hoosiers across the state to join us in the fight to protect democracy. #INForAll
