this August, Washington will hear a sound we know well in Indiana, the roar of IndyCar engines. The Freedom 250 Grand Prix will bring IndyCar to our Nation's Capital as we mark 250 years of American ingenuity. IndyCar was born in my…

last night the country watched something nobody predicted: Indiana, national football champions. Our Hoosiers beat Miami 27-21, and finished a perfect season and brought the title home to Indiana. I say that as a proud IU alum, former…

across my home State of Indiana, I hear the same thing time and again. People work hard. They pay their taxes, and they expect Washington to treat their dollars with respect. Hoosier hospitality means that we help neighbors who truly need…

a simple principle should guide us: where we live should not determine the quality of healthcare that we can get, but for too many Hoosiers, especially in our rural communities, this isn't the reality. That is why the Working Families Tax…

just a year ago, I was sworn in in this Chamber to represent the good people of Indiana's Sixth District. Since then, I have traveled the district from Columbus to Rushville, Connersville to Winchester, listening to Hoosiers. They are…

I rise to recognize a fellow Hoosier and Purdue University engineer, Mr. Yuri Kubo. Yuri is a native of Columbus, Indiana, back in my district. He was recently selected as one of just 10 candidates from a field of 8,000 to join NASA's next…

I rise today to commend the air traffic controllers and the men and women of the FAA. For 43 days, while the Democrats kept our government closed, the aviation system that they rely upon and the traveling public depend upon was pushed to…

I rise today to reflect on my very recent visit to Israel. It was a humbling journey through the Holy Land, where the history and resilience of the Israeli people left a deep impression. I stood inside Jerusalem's Church of the Holy…

It is a reality that to construct space is one thing; the carry cost of maintaining it is quite another. There is general recognition increasingly within this Congress that we have more space than our Federal Government needs. That is…

our Department of Defense is charged with protecting America's critical infrastructure. Our current standards are simply insufficient. The United States is vulnerable to attack on our defense infrastructure by our adversaries, as we were…

I rise to offer an epilogue on my just- completed Hoosier Heartland Tour across Indiana's Sixth District. I participated in 45 events. I engaged meaningfully with 1,800 Hoosiers. I reported back on my work in Congress. I listened to their…

I rise today to kick off my Hoosier Heartland Tour. As this Chamber adjourns, I eagerly look forward to beginning my first summer district work period. As I move about Indiana's Sixth District over the weeks to come, I am eager to share…

my amendment provides $55 million to build a new aviation maintenance hangar and operations building and renovate the existing hangar space at our Shelbyville, Indiana, Army Aviation Support Facility. Mr. Chair, 900 Indiana guardsmen…

Madam Speaker, it is an honor to follow some of our Chamber's most distinguished colleagues, including Speaker Mike Johnson, on the anniversary of this historic day. Three years ago today, on June 24, 2022, our Supreme Court issued its…

I rise to spotlight the over 32,000 honorable Hoosier veterans across Indiana's Sixth District. A recurring theme I have heard from veterans as I move around the district is how difficult it can be to obtain the care that they have earned…

Indiana is at the Crossroads of America. The Indianapolis International Airport is in my district. It is one of the reasons we proudly hold the claim to the distinction of Crossroads of America. This past month, Indianapolis International…

I rise in recognition of our law enforcement community in Indiana's Sixth District and across our Hoosier State. Police Week is a time for all of us to recognize and honor those serving our communities and, most especially, those who have…
