- I will work and fight to repeal Indiana's extreme abortion ban.
- I will work to serve Hoosiers by sensible gun legislation, including the repeal of permitless carry.
- I will work to provide true fiscal responsibility to stop overtaxing and underserving Hoosiers.
We need state leaders who will work to address the actual challenges facing our public schools today, not waste time on divisive issues like the Supermajority has. I will work to ensure our children get the education and opportunities they need to pursue their dreams and establish fulfilling careers right here in Indiana.
I will work to
-Fully fund public schools
-Address the statewide teacher shortage by investing in current and future teachers
-Provide more career apprenticeship opportunities for students
-Provide public college tuition credits to Indiana high school students who demonstrate they were on payroll during high school
-Cap Indiana public college tuition fees to keep higher education affordable for working families
