This year, students from 32 Indianapolis schools showcased their creativity by crafting Valentine's Day cards for veterans through the annual Valentines for Vets program. These heartfelt cards were delivered to veterans in hospitals and nursing homes, spreading joy and appreciation.
President Trump is creating chaos so you don’t notice the sky-high price of eggs — if you can find them on the shelves.   So you don’t notice inflation hit a 7-month high.   So you don’t notice an unelected billionaire is running things, not the president.
NIH funds lifesaving research. Cutting NIH means cutting research for childhood cancer – these NIH-funded trials can be a parent’s last hope.   Republicans want to line billionaires’ pockets instead of helping sick kids.
A federal judge will rule on President Trump’s “buyout” offer to federal employees today. I’ve been urging federal employees NOT to take this offer. Read how these cuts will hurt Black workers in my column with the Indianapolis Recorder: indianapolisrecorder.com/a-black-work...
I’ve been urging federal workers to hold out — do NOT take the proposed “buyout.” Trump and Musk do not have the legal power to make these promises, and I’m fighting to ensure Indiana’s 24,000 federal workers keep their jobs.
MAGA Republicans are justifying mass deportations based on the false idea that immigrants make our cities less safe – but Trump has put the public at risk by pardoning Jan. 6 insurrectionists. Read my column in the IndyStar: www.indystar.com/story/opinio...
President Trump's proposal to remove Palestinians from Palestine so he can “take over” Gaza for redevelopment is a blatant endorsement of ethnic cleansing. I stand against these egregious actions. We must change course immediately.
Republicans are trying to erase DEI but they can’t erase our history.   That’s why I’m co-sponsoring a bill to honor the #FreedomRiders, who faced mob violence, arrests, and firebombings in the fight against segregation.
Today, the Department of Treasury refused to let Members of Congress enter the building. I’ll keep speaking up and pushing back against presidential overreach — and work to keep your data safe.
BREAKING: Trump has paused tariffs on Mexico. This comes after I joined my Democratic colleagues pushing Trump and Sec. Rubio to avoid an unnecessary trade war with our ally that would raise costs for American families.
BREAKING: President Trump says he has agreed to "immediately pause" anticipated tariffs on Mexico for one month
Black History Month is a time to honor the trailblazers who made an immeasurable mark on our nation. It is also a time to reflect on the ongoing fight for equality and justice. Let us celebrate the past, acknowledge the present, and work to build a brighter future.
It was an honor to meet with Indiana Statehouse interns today. In such a tense political climate, it’s more important than ever to nurture the next generation. I’m excited to see these future leaders continue to serve our state.
Asra Hussain was a beloved member of our community in Indiana. She was selfless, generous, and loved by many. This loss is felt by us all, but especially her husband Hamaad and her family and friends.    Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un. www.wthr.com/article/news...
