Thank you to the bold students from Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School for writing to me about the importance of protecting immigrant communities. Your voices matter, and our future is bright with leaders like you. I will continue working to ensure fairness and opportunity for all.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 20(source)

The temperature is high on calls for political violence — including threats coming from the president. As a previous target myself, I am gravely concerned. Threats and bullying are no way to handle political issues.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 19(source)

My district is the proud home to the Best Airport in North America -- @IND – and I’ll continue fighting for safe, reliable air travel for all. Read more at carson.house.gov

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 19(source)

I am honored to serve as the Ranking Member of House Aviation Subcommittee. There was perhaps no better reminder of the importance of safe, reliable air travel than earlier this month, when travelers experienced delays and cancelations at major airports because of the government shutdown. L

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 18(source)

I voted today to release the Epstein files in full. This is possible because of the survivors who put themselves at risk in order to prevent future harm and abuse. They deserve justice, transparency, and accountability. To all survivors of sexual violence: your voice matters.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 18(source)

Families are struggling to make ends meet. Congress can and should vote TODAY to make healthcare more affordable. Otherwise, prices will skyrocket Jan. 1. Americans deserve better.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 14(source)

The Indiana Senate has said it will not vote on unfair redistricting. To the legislators who stood firm, faith leaders, concerned citizens, organizers, and volunteers: thank you. This is what happens when we make our voices heard.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 14(source)

I want to thank Senator Bray and all the Republican and Democratic members of the Indiana Statehouse who held firm on Hoosier values. This is a win for all of us.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 14(source)

Prayer, people, and partnerships power change. Hoosiers do things differently. We’re about collaboration, not division. We’re about independent thinking — not taking orders from Washington.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 12(source)

It’s simple. No healthcare protections, no vote from me. Republicans’ spending bill will cause millions to face skyrocketing healthcare costs—and Americans just can’t afford it.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 11(source)

Today, we honor the brave men and women who have served and sacrificed for our nation and recommit to making sure our veterans have the food, housing, and healthcare they deserve. Thank you to all Hoosier veterans for your service.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 10(source)

It remains to be seen what happens in the Senate, but I will not vote in the House for a government funding measure that doesn't protect healthcare. Without extending Affordable Care Act tax credits, millions will see health insurance costs double. Hardworking Americans just can't afford that.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 7(source)

Can you afford to pay $17,000 more in 2026 for the same health insurance you have now? Of course not.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 6(source)

Trump can and must fully restore SNAP benefits, now.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 6(source)

This week, a constituent told me about a child they met at a local food giveaway. A little girl looked around and said, "Look, Mom. We can make sandwiches now!" No parent should have their grocery money snatched away from them. No child should ever go hungry.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 6(source)

It doesn't have to be this way — my Aviation Funding Stability Act would protect air traffic controllers from a shutdown, now or in the future.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 6(source)

Experiencing delayed flights and crowded airports? The Trump administration is slowing air traffic volume because of the shutdown, and because exhausted air traffic controllers aren't getting paid.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 5(source)

While President Trump is playing politics with SNAP benefits and while MAGA Republicans are preventing federal employees from receiving their paychecks, Hoosier families still have to eat.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.govNov 4(source)

UPDATE: Trump backtracked and threatened to refuse to release any SNAP funds. Then the White House backtracked on Trump's backtrack. He has the funds. He has a court order. The Trump administration must ensure 22 million children don't go hungry.

The Trump administration has the funds to FULLY sustain SNAP through November. But he’s only funding it partially, doing the bare minimum to satisfy a court order. He’s playing politics with children’s hunger, and it’s despicable.
