When I was back in the district this week in Indiana, Hoosier requests were pretty simple. They said: work on reforms, create more jobs, and jump-start the economy.

So I'm cosponsoring the Stop Playing on Citizens' Cash Act to stop wasting our tax dollars. These same individuals are set to lead a commanding role implementing and enforcing ObamaCare. So I'm cosponsoring the Keep the IRS Off Our Health Care Act to prevent this agency from getting their hands on our health care. Washington needs a strong dose of Hoosier common sense.…
