I secured federal funding for Shepherd Community Center, which is working to break the cycle of poverty in Indianapolis. These investments are essential to strengthening our community.

Trump’s tariffs have caused costs to skyrocket – but the Supreme Court just ruled these tariffs are illegal, in what’s being called a “major blow” to Trump.   Trump is already losing 70% of court cases filed against him. Now there’s another to add to the list.

NEW I secured over $13 million for Indianapolis. Each year, I bring home Community Project Funding to invest directly in our city. Learn more at carson.house.gov

Ramadan Mubarak! Tonight, Hoosiers and Muslims around the world begin a month of reflection, renewal, and gratitude. I wish all who observe a blessed and fulfilling Ramadan.

Rep. Fine continues to make completely racist and Islamophobic comments without repercussions. These statements aren't just words. They spur hate and violence against the Muslim community. As Dean of the Muslim Caucus, I'm calling on Rep. Fine to resign. We can’t let this bigotry go unchecked.

Officer Brian Elliott lost his life in the line of duty last night. I'm praying for his family and the entire Beech Grove Police Department, and another officer who was shot and injured.

“I may be poor, but I am Somebody; I may be young; but I am Somebody; I may be on welfare, but I am Somebody.” It's a poem Rev. Jesse Jackson often repeated—the idea that we must recognize the humanity in every person.

Black history will not be erased. I was honored to present the Julia M. Carson Community Award to Ophelia Wellington for her work showcasing and preserving Black Hoosier history with Freetown Village.

Happy Valentine’s Day! Each year, I team up with Indianapolis schools for our Valentines for Vets program to deliver valentines to nursing homes and veteran service organizations. Thanks to all who participated!

Let’s be clear: non-citizens voting is already illegal.   The SAVE Act doesn’t fix a real problem. It creates new barriers by forcing Americans to present a passport or birth certificate in person just to register or update their registration.

Thank you to Tanvi, an 8th grader who sent a letter reminding me how important it is to fight for Indianapolis youth. Tanvi, look out for a response from me soon!

Team Carson was able to step in to get this resident their social security issue resolved quickly. Have a similar issue with a federal program, like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, or VA benefits? Visit carson.house.gov or give us a call to find out if we can help.

Thank you @carson.house.gov for your continued commitment to justice for American-Palestinian journalist Shireen Abu Akleh. Congress must "honor Shireen’s unwavering commitment to truth and press freedom" through action to prevent future attacks on journalists, @hassaneltayyab.bsky.social said.

Trump posted a video of our former president and first lady depicted as primates. This represents the many people who don’t see Black people as human. Unacceptable! He knows exactly what he is doing.   Dehumanizing images reflect dehumanizing policies.

I got involved in activism starting in junior high. It shaped me into who I am. This week, young people in Indianapolis stood up for their beliefs that ICE is assaulting our community.   To those students: Keep fighting. Keep standing up. It’s your First Amendment right.

Today marks 33 years since Democrats passed the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA). While it guarantees unpaid leave, millions of working Americans still do not have access to paid family and medical leave.

My office was able to secure a passport for a child facing dangerous circumstances in Haiti. No family should have to experience separation because of unnecessary delays. This is the work Team Carson is committed to and why constituent services matter.

I'm deeply saddened by the passing of former Indiana Congressman Lee Hamilton. A champion of bipartisanship and a true Hoosier icon, his legacy shaped Congress and extended far beyond it through, especially his work at Indiana University.

There has to be federal consequences for the actions of ICE.

Alex. Renee. Victor. Oscar. Last night, Indianapolis came together to remember those murdered by ICE and vow to keep fighting for those still under attack.

Public service is more important than ever. These Indiana Senate and House interns are the future leaders of our state, and I was honored to meet with them to share more about my path to Congress.

Congress must eliminate ICE as we know it. I’m urging people to keep the pressure up and fight these gross human rights abuses.

1 in 2 families in Indiana struggle to afford diapers. The Indiana Diaper Bank empowers Hoosiers by providing a reliable and adequate supply of diapering essentials. I was honored to tour their facility and meet the staff and community partners who have helped nearly 300,000 Hoosier babies.

My sister @repilhan.bsky.social speaks truth to power and that has made her a target for political violence. I stand with Ilhan. I stand with Minnesota.

5 year old Liam Ramos is inside here. So are over 70,000 individuals in the country who largely have not been seen by a judge. Legal immigrants. Children. US citizens. The Senate must vote to stop funding these internment camps.

As temperatures continue to drop, these resources can help you stay warm and safe.

ICE shot a man on the ground point blank. I voted against DHS funding this week, and the Senate has the chance to follow suit next week. Republicans: Wake up. Our government is killing its own people.

With extreme cold temperatures coming to Indianapolis this weekend, residents should take precaution and check on neighbors. Limit time outdoors and dress in layers if you must travel.

🚨NEW: I signed a discharge petition to force the House to vote on banning Members of Congress, president, and vice president from holding and trading stocks.  Elected officials should never use their positions for personal financial gain. We need to end corruption and hidden money in politics.

I will not rubber stamp this administration’s lawless assault on our communities.

I spoke to @politico.com about my goals as Ranking Member of the @transportdems.bsky.social Aviation Subcommittee.  It doesn't matter if you're a Democrat, Republican, or independent. Folks care about transportation.  subscriber.politicopro.com/article/2026...

Exactly 1 year ago, Donald Trump became president and promised to “rapidly bring down costs” and “cut your energy costs in half.”  Electricity bills are up. The average American had to spend $1,600 more last year for basics like food and housing.  This is an affordability crisis.

HOO HOO HOO HOOSIERS! 🏈

"Whatever affects one directly affects all indirectly." Today, let's honor Dr. King's legacy with our own moral courage.

Muhammad Ali was a fighter in the boxing ring and in civil rights — an advocate for Muslim-Americans and a pioneer for justice. His impact is still felt today, which is why I introduced a bill honoring him with a Congressional Gold Medal. Happy Birthday, Muhammad Ali!

Visas allow people to come the US to work and contribute to society. President Trump is now making it harder for people to legally enter by suspending immigrant visas, despite the essential role immigrants play in strengthening our country.

The Trump administration cut healthcare for millions of Americans.  This is what they're paying for instead.

Yesterday, my office hosted a seminar to help you navigate this tax season. Weren't able to make it? You can find information — including updates to tax code and IRS resources and tips — at carson.house.gov/taxprep.

Indianapolis received millions of dollars for the Safe Streets and Roads for All program thanks to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. We know how important infrastructure investments are.

In President Trump's first year, the cost of living kept climbing and was one of the worst years for job growth since the pandemic. Working families deserve better.

Democrats are working to lower energy costs for families, but the Trump administration has reversed many of these policies, causing Hoosiers to pay 16% more than the national average on their electric bill.

Best of luck to the IU football team at the Peach Bowl tonight!

BREAKING: The House just passed bipartisan legislation to extend Affordable Care Act tax credits and slow skyrocketing health care costs. This is what happens when we work together.

Political violence is never the answer. Today marks 15 years since the horrific attack on Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords that killed six innocent people. As a target of political violence myself, I proudly support the resolution honoring the survivors and lives lost on this day in 2011 in Tucson.

Protesting is not a crime. It should never get you killed. I’m a former member of law enforcement & have been in dangerous situations. The ICE agent who shot a demonstrator in Minnesota was not justified.

The House is expected to vote this week to restore ACA tax credits. All Members of Congress need to do the right thing for the American people.

5 years ago today, violent insurrectionists attacked the U.S. Capitol to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. Political violence has no place in this country. Thank you to the brave police officers who put their lives on the line to protect and serve our country.

Sending prayers to my Hoosier colleague Congressman Baird and his wife Danise after a car accident. I’m glad to hear they are stable and wish them both a full recovery.
