The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

Utility bills are already too high, and many Hoosier families are struggling just to keep up. Hearing that customers may have been incorrectly billed by NIPSCO is deeply concerning.

I'm begging my fellow politicians, Illinoisans, and Americans to realize that right now, we aren't fighting over policy or political party. We're fighting over whether we're going to be a country rooted in empathy and kindness — or one rooted in cruelty and rage.

HB 1145 passed through the Senate. This bill provides public retirees & retired public school teachers with a well-deserved 13th Check to support them after their years of service to our state. I’ve been proud to support this legislation as it moves to the Governor's desk.

Goldman: They’re still covering up, because only half of the documents have been released. I don’t understand why they get to decide—without explanation—why half of the material should be held back. Trump’s name is all over it. So now we know why there was such a cover-up…

I was happy to vote yes on SB 85, which eliminates medical debt from following Hoosiers in every aspect of their life. Hoosiers are working hard to put food on the table & keep the lights on. This bill keeps Hoosiers afloat in the affordability crisis. Hoosier Health First!

Indiana House Republicans just voted against giving you the same sales tax exemption on your utility bill that data centers have. If data centers don't have to pay the 7% sales tax, neither should you.
