Investing in Indianapolis means delivering real results for you. I secured over $13 million for projects in our city that will make our communities safer and strengthen our neighborhoods. Learn more about what new projects are coming to our community.

I am proud to earn a 100% score from the @LCVoters. At a time when the Trump administration is making major cuts to environmental protections, I will continue fighting for cleaner air and water and investing in clean energy.

Women make less than men for doing the same work — and the gap gets even wider for women of color. I'm working to pass the Paycheck Fairness Act to prevent discrimination, protect women, and make our economy better for everyone.

MARKUP ALERT: Today, the T&I Committee will mark up the ALERT Act—a comprehensive aviation safety bill that addresses the NTSB’s safety recommendations in the aftermath of the tragic DCA midair collision. Tune in: youtube.com/live/pzaTuS2Yx…

Democrats have put forth a solution to fully fund TSA—without giving ICE more money to attack our communities.  Republicans refuse to accept it.  We can and should make sure TSA workers are paid while still holding ICE accountable.

I just submitted an amendment to stop ICE from hiding behind masks and face coverings. We need transparency. We need ICE out of our airports and out of our homes. Republicans need to work with Democrats to fund DHS the right way.

Each year, I bring home funding for a variety of projects that make our neighborhoods stronger. Here’s a look at what’s coming.

Ranking Members Larsen and Carson Statement on Trump Administration Sending ICE to Airports Instead of Ending Shutdown

Eid Mubarak to everyone celebrating Eid Al-Fitr. After a month of fasting and reflection during Ramadan, today is a time to celebrate gratitude and compassion. Wishing a blessed Eid to all who celebrate.

At least 13 US service members have already died in Iran—including Captain Seth Koval, a husband and dad from Indiana. I pressed Trump administration officials to justify this war. When the lives of our brave service members are at risk, the American people deserve answers.

.@RepAndreCarson: "This year's threat assessment makes no mention of foreign threats to our elections. Meanwhile the IC has been publicly warning about foreign powers interfering in our elections for nearly a decade. So the omission is very striking."

NEW: I'm signing a discharge petition to fast track a vote to fully fund TSA — without giving a blank check to ICE.  Fund essential workers. Don't fund the murder and abuse of innocent families.

This morning, @TransportDems is opposing a bill that will cut transportation jobs and increase costs for American families.  With a pressing affordability crisis, now is not the time to cut trucking jobs—which would slow down delivery times and increase costs for families.

Joined @RepAndreCarson, @VisitIndy & @VisitIndiana for a #TravelWorks Power Hour! We dug into the policies needed to keep Indiana's travel economy strong—from upgrading aviation infrastructure to preparing for historic events. With the travel industry supporting 100K jobs in Indiana, it’s clear: travel is essential. 📍@IMSMuseum

Happy 317 Day! There’s so much that makes Indianapolis special, including our reputation for hosting millions of visitors each year – from the Indy500, to conventions, concerts, and more. Thank you to @VisitIndy and @USTravel for convening a group of local leaders, all committed to growing Indianapolis’ reputation for Hoosier Hospitality.

Happy St. Patrick's Day, Hoosiers! Today we honor the rich heritage that has shaped Indianapolis and this nation. May this day be filled with fellowship and good luck.

I join Hoosiers across the state in mourning the loss of Capt. Seth R. Koval, an American hero who served our nation with honor. My prayers are with his family, community and all who served beside him. We will never forget his sacrifice and bravery to our country.

President Trump is dragging us into another endless war without congressional approval. I voted against this war because Americans should not have to suffer higher costs or decisions that puts lives at risk.

None of these isms and phobias have a place in our society.

I’m proud to host my annual Youth Opportunities Fair to provide students the opportunity to enter the workforce. Investing in young people allows for stronger communities, a stronger workforce, and a bright future for Indianapolis.

My annual Youth Opportunities Fair with @IvyTechCC was a success! We helped close to 200 young people find jobs, internships, and other opportunities ahead of the summer months.
