Putting Your Money Back in Your Pocket

You earned that paycheck, so you should keep it. That's why I'm fighting to lower the cost of living, cut wasteful spending, and get our national debt under control. Hardworking Hoosiers know how to spend their money better than any politician in Washington ever will.

Here's where I stand:

  • Voted for the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act to lower housing costs by expanding supply and making homeownership affordable again
  • Led the fight against fraud to put more money back in your pocket
  • Introduced a Balanced Budget Amendment to force Washington to live within its means, like every Hoosier family does
