“I will fight to lower everyday costs for Indiana families and build our manufacturing economy. That means creating a business climate that encourages smart investment, supports local workers and labor unions, grows and brings high-wage jobs home so people don’t have to commute to Chicago, and puts more money in people’s pockets by addressing property taxes, utility rates, and the broader inflation / affordability crisis.”
(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey) “Nate’s priorities as your State Senator will be building our manufacturing economy, lowering everyday costs for Indiana families, strengthening public safety, and protecting and preserving our dunes, lakes and farms.”
