A big thank you to Matthew Sprague for raising awareness about the dangers of human trafficking—especially during large events like the Indy 500, where the risk can be heightened.![]()
Human trafficking is a real and urgent threat that too many people face every day. This year, I was proud to work with my colleagues on HB 1416, a bill that mandates the display of human trafficking awareness posters in gas stations, rest stops and welcome centers—specifically in restrooms, where victims may have a brief moment alone.![]()
When every second matters, a clearly posted hotline number can be the lifeline someone needs to reach safety.![]()
Let’s keep pushing for change and protecting the vulnerable.

Matthew Sprague, a victim of human trafficking during the Indianapolis 500, shares his story to raise awareness and prevent others from suffering the same.
Today, Governor Braun signed Senate Bill 409, a bill I was proud to author.![]()
This legislation is a meaningful step forward in ensuring that parents can be present for key moments in their child’s education without fearing retaliation at work.![]()
Too often, working families face an impossible choice: attend a school meeting like a case conference or an attendance review or keep the job that puts food on the table and pays the bills. SB 409 helps remove that burden, supporting both strong families and student success.![]()
I'm honored to have helped lead this effort and see it become law. I’ll keep working to pass more legislation that improves life for Hoosiers across our state. #INForAll
I had the pleasure of attending CoAction Trivia in support of their incredible work serving some of our most vulnerable neighbors.![]()
CoAction is a remarkable organization dedicated to helping aging Hoosiers remain self-sufficient and thrive. Their mission goes beyond age — they serve people of all incomes, abilities and backgrounds, ensuring everyone has the opportunity to grow and live with dignity.![]()
I proudly support organizations like CoAction that are making a meaningful, lasting impact in our communities. Without them, Indiana wouldn’t move forward. #INForAll
Had a great time showing off my golf game at the NIALF Golf Outing last week, all in support of Northern Indiana Labor.![]()
Labor is the backbone of Indiana — and working families are the heart of our communities. They give so much to keep our state strong and thriving. It's up to all of us to ensure they have the support and resources they need to stay afloat and succeed.![]()
Proud to stand with la#INForAllorAll
