A born and raised Hoosier, Truck driver and proud husband and father. I am a Hoosier democrat which means that I believe in the worker and giving representation to district 91 in Southwest Marion County. As your representative; I will be attentive to hearing you out and using my voice on your behalf. It is time for a new generation of leadership in Indiana; Andrew Locke will bring real representation because you deserve to be listened to before being spoken for.
  • Family first A family is the strongest corporation to exist. That means you need to be there for your family, the state needs to be here for you and we can all do better to achieve more.
  • Real Representation Robert Behning is a career politician and ghost in District 91. You and I receive his mailers and they ring as hollow as the education reforms tearing our public schools apart. I will be at your doorstep, I will be at your grocery store, at your gas station and I will be in your neighborhood because I am raising my family of 4 in your neighborhood. Too long we’ve allowed taxation with out representation. Remove Robert Behning.
  • Change for our state A swamp does exist in our politics; and in the state of Indiana that swamp is a Republican swimming hole for the rich and powerful. I want to help in draft voter referendum legislation. We are surrounded as well by Michigan, Illinois, and Ohio- all with legalized cannabis use for adults 21+. Indiana, our cross roads of America, is flooded with legalized cannabis and our tax dollars are flowing like rivers into neighboring states. We have budgetary shortfalls and need that revenue and you deserve that freedom and liberty.

Your elected representatives should meet you were you are and should be a sounding board for the communities biggest issues or problems.
I believe elected officials should be the pinnacle of role models for our youth, I believe in restoring faith in your public officials.
Fazoli’s! A Hoosier classic that I worked from sophomore year in high school till senior year; so approximately 16-18 years old!
John Locke- Two Treatises of Government. It is a fascinating book that takes apart the religious argument used for the justification of the monarchy in England during our countries founding. The second of the “two treatises” is a wonderful early version of our bill of rights. John Locke’s works had a historical impact upon the United States and our founding fathers.
Addiction. I am proud to be sober and clean of cigarettes and I hope to inspire others to do the same. These vices that have fooled Hoosiers for too long have to be put to an end; they give nothing to Hoosiers and take take take. The cigarette companies are making money off the health and backs of hard working Hoosiers. Families torn apart because alcohol is a slow decaying acid that works its way through the core of the family. I believe every one deserves to be able to drink for the merry times; but we shouldn’t be burdened to drink daily or heavily.
Our state is facing a large expansion over the next decade; driven in part by high housing costs and an increasing awareness in regional differences. District 91 in particular, with the expansion and finalization of I-69 coming into 465; you and our district have a huge opportunity because we have the land and resources needed to build a better and stronger Indiana.
This is necessary for securing a future that all Hoosiers can feel that they’ve participated in. I plan to push and drive legislation to allow you, the Hoosier voter, to have your say in state policy with voter referendums and ballot initiatives.
