Hoosier Jobs and Economic Growth “The Freedom and Opportunity Agenda prioritizes jobs and economic growth through home-grown businesses with good-paying careers. I’m looking forward to working with Mike Braun to achieve this. In the meantime, I will continue my work on making sure more Hoosiers around the state have these opportunities in the upcoming session.” – State Sen. Mark Messmer on Hoosier Jobs and Economic Growth Improving Education and Parental Rights “I am encouraged that Mike Braun’s Freedom and Opportunity Agenda has a focus on improving education that focuses on choice, career options, and parental rights. I have worked on these issues and will be doing so going forward, including in the upcoming session of the General Assembly.” – State Rep. Jake Teshka on Improving Education and Parental Rights Put Kids First “Children in this state were protected by the legislature last session from life-altering medical procedures. Mike’s Freedom and Opportunity Agenda assures Hoosiers that the next Governor of the state will not abandon our children to liberal indoctrination or ‘gender-affirming care’. I will always work to protect children, including in the upcoming session of the General Assembly.” – State Rep. Bob Morris on Putting Kids First Stand Up to Woke Corporations “We made progress last year on protecting Hoosiers from misguided ESG policy. There is still work to be done and the Freedom and Opportunity Agenda ensures that we will have the leadership necessary to complete it. I will be working on this issue next session as Hoosiers deserve state law to support their retirements not woke corporate capitol.” – State Rep. Alan Morrison on Standing Up to Woke Corporations Healthcare Affordability “I have been working on healthcare affordability issues since I arrived at the statehouse. I am encouraged to see healthcare affordability being part of the Freedom and Opportunity Agenda as I know it is an issue that deserves to be in a gubernatorial platform. I will continue working on healthcare issues in the legislature as we still have work to be done.” – State Rep. Matt Hostettler on Healthcare Affordability Reliable, Affordable, and Clean Energy “Mike Braun’s Freedom and Opportunity Agenda specifically addresses the energy crisis emerging across our state. Hoosiers are paying more for electricity than ever before and we are turning our backs on the abundant resources in our own state. I support this plank of his agenda and will be working on it even before he is Governor.” – State Rep. Shane Lindauer on Reliable, Affordable, and Clean Energy Pro-Life means Pro-Family “I support Mike Braun’s Freedom and Opportunity Agenda, specifically in relation to our pro-life positions translating into being pro-family and working to help mothers and their babies receive the care and support they need. This deserves immediate attention and I will be doing that this session.” – State Rep. Joanna King on Protecting Life and Family Standing with Law Enforcement and Keeping Communities Safe “Our law enforcement officers need to know that the justice system will not fail them when they do their jobs on a daily basis. Keeping our communities safe means supporting the men and women in blue. Mike Braun’s Freedom and Opportunity Agenda recognizes this and I stand ready to help ensure that when we have dangerous criminals in custody that activist organizations or soft on crime prosecutors aren’t working against the men and women wearing the badge.” – State Rep. Mike Speedy on Standing with Law Enforcement Securing Our Southern Border “Mike Braun’s Freedom and Opportunity Agenda takes note that the Biden Administration’s approach to immigration puts us all at risk. It gives Hoosiers the confidence that we will not take our eye off the ball in protecting our communities from fentanyl and other drugs making their way here from the border. I will continue to work with my colleagues and stakeholders to address this and use this as a guide in the upcoming session.” – State Rep. Heath VanNatter on Securing Our Southern Border Agriculture “Agriculture plays a crucial role in the Hoosier economy. The Freedom and Opportunity Agenda acknowledges the challenges faced by family farms due to climate concerns and increasing input costs. I share these concerns and believe it’s important to address these issues timely and responsibly. I will continue working to advance Hoosier Agriculture during the upcoming session of the General Assembly.” – State Rep. Dave Hall on Agriculture Defending our Constitutional Rights and No More Mandates “I will defend our God-given constitutional rights at every turn. Our freedoms of religion, Second Amendment rights, and parental rights over their children are under attack. The Freedom and Opportunity Agenda sets to protect our rights from government bureaucrats and prevent any future mandates or lockdowns that could protrude on them. I have always defended these rights and will continue to do so and I’m glad Mike Braun will be joining me in this effort soon.” – State Rep. Chris Judy on Defending our Constitution and Stopping Mandates Election Security and Reform “I’m committed to ensuring that every Hoosier feels confident their vote is counted fairly. Alongside Mike Braun with his Freedom and Opportunity Agenda, I will advocate for transparent, secure elections in the next legislative session and defend our state from interference by Washington DC radicals.”– State Rep. Zach Payne on Election Security and Reform Cut Taxes and Reducing the Size of Government “A small, efficient government is the best government. The Freedom and Opportunity Agenda reinforces what we all know; your money is better in your wallet than the government’s. Reducing the size of government is key to lowering taxes and I’ve worked on both in my time at the statehouse. I will continue doing so this session and look forward to teaming with Mike Braun in the future.” – State Rep. Steve Bartels on Cutting Taxes and Reducing the Size of Government You can read Mike Braun’s Freedom and Opportunity Agenda here. |
