Thank you to Tom & Vicki Brauns for inviting me to join them at their table!

Congratulations to the St. Bernard's Catholic School in Rockport for another VERY successful fundraising dinner and auction on Saturday. Over 300 in attendance and great support by all of the family and friends that were there.

Thanks for giving me the opportunity to be the keynote speaker! It was also nice to see Tom Stephens recognized with the Lifetime Achievement Award!

The Daviess County Republican Party Lincoln Day Dinner was this week. It was great updating everyone on the positive work that is getting done in Washington that all the media ignore reporting on.

We stayed as long as anyone had questions and had a great response from the attendees!

Monday I attended the Vermillion County Farm Bureau candidate forum. It was a great opportunity to meet with members of the community, the local candidates and the State Rep & State Senate candidates.

We had a great trip to the Fountain County Republican Party Lincoln Day Dinner on Sunday at The Beef House Restaurant! Great turnout and great featured speaker. Thank you Paula Kopenhaver for the invitation and the chance to meet the community leaders in attendance!

At the dinner, Dana also had a panel discussion with all the local and state leaders on how Martin Co can improve the quality of life in the county and maximize growth opportunities. It was a great discussion that we all took away some ideas that can help.

Thank you to Martin Co GOP Chair, Dana Strange, for the opportunity to speak at the Martin Co Lincoln Day Dinner. It was great getting to spend the evening with my former State Senate colleague Sen Chris Garten.

Sunday was the best weather we've had in several years at the Ireland St Patrick's Parade. It's usually sleet and snow we are dealing with. This year was warm, but we had very strong winds!! Thanks to everyone who turned out for a great community event!

Thank you Patty Vanoven for the invitation and the opportunity to share what's happening in Congress!

Great being at the Gibson County Chamber of Commerce and Gibson County Farm Bureau candidate forum on Saturday. As always, there was a strong turnout, and great conversations before and after the forum.

Honored to have @gomarkmessmer’s endorsement. He’s doing a great job fighting for the Evansville area and the MAGA movement in Congress. We will keep working alongside President Trump to make Kentucky, Indiana, and the USA energy dominant again.

🚨 ENDORSEMENT ALERT! I am proud to receive the House Conservatives Fund’s endorsement for my 2026 re-election campaign! I will always stand up for Hoosier conservative values and the needs of IN-08 families and businesses!

Both were amazing! It was great meeting several of the attendees!

The second was Jill Staneck, who has spent decades advocating for the prolife community. She talked about her experiences as a nurse and her efforts to expose the abortion and infanticide practices of the hospital she used to work for in Chicago that eventually got her fired.

Congratulations to the Wabash Valley Right to Life organization in Terre Haute for putting on a great annual dinner event this week. They had two great speakers.

Congratulations to the Daviess Co Republicans for putting on a fabulous Fall Freedom Dinner & tribute to Charlie Kirk. Jan Hicks and the rest of the Central Committee put together a great program. It was exciting to give an update coming off the heels of the end of the shutdown!
