“Rural poverty in Indiana isn’t just about jobs, it’s about the cost of keeping a car running so you can get to one. I support Right to Repair laws that stop manufacturers from locking out independent mechanics and DIYers with restricted parts, tools, and repair software.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey)

“This is a major investment in Naval Weapons Station Crane and a clear signal that the United States is committed to Crane's long-term role as one of our nation's premier defense installations.

“This announcement further reflects the incredible momentum building across Indiana's defense industry. From the annual Northeast Indiana Defense Summit to L3Harris Technologies' work supporting the Golden Dome and the expansion of its Fort Wayne operations, Hoosiers are increasingly at the center of America's effort to rebuild and modernize our defense industrial base. Indiana is proving the heartland can and should lead the way in keeping America strong, secure and ready for tomorrow.” (Official legislative website)
