AES is raising its rates for Indy residents for the second time in 2 years. There's no reason a company generating $12 billion in revenue per year should be able to raise costs for families making $12 an hour. Hoosiers deserve better.

I am calling on DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin to close the Dilley Immigration Processing Center. Families have reported inhumane treatment and unsafe conditions for children. No child belongs in detention. DHS must close this facility and end family detention.

🚨NEW BILL ALERT: Indiana opted out of a food program that provides summer meals for 650,000 kids. My Summer Meals for Kids Act would prevent states from needlessly cutting resources—and ensure every child is fed, all year round. Learn more:

NEW: I just signed a discharge petition to fast track a vote on the Right to Contraception Act. 8 in 10 Americans—of both parties—support protecting access to birth control. But a few extremist lawmakers could threaten this critical health care. I'm taking action.
