This session I am introducing SB 29 to require the safe storage of firearms in Indiana. This is a necessary bill that would promote responsible gun safety practices. Safe firearms storage is a proposal that Hoosiers have called for. #YourVoice #OurMission https://t.co/3LVsKhfo62

Placing guns in schools is not a solution to school shootings-it only increases the likelihood of a gun being used at school. What we need to do is work to ensure that children don't gain access to deadly weapons-not create more opportunities for children to get ahold of firearms https://t.co/OBp5uXgjEy
Every woman has a right to autonomy over her own body - even this radical right wing Supreme Court agrees! I'm happy to see yesterday's decision, and I hope this settles the debate for all the anti-choice legislators in Statehouses all over our country. https://t.co/A4WBQN9qpI
Yesterday I signed a pledge to end gerrymandering in Indiana. Redistricting reform is one of the top priorities for the @INSenDems this session because we believe that #YourVote matters. Voters should choose their representatives, not the other way around. https://t.co/UIdP1eT311
Yesterday @INSenDems offered amendments to HB 1066 to establish accountability and transparency measures for charter schools. Unfortunately, Republicans voted down the amendments, making it clear that preventing virtual charters from stealing taxpayer money is not a priority. https://t.co/3uQINjaBgi
My SB 103 would legalize medical marijuana possession for the terminally ill in Indiana. Hoosiers who suffer through immense pain should not be criminalized for using prescribed medicinal marijuana to help ease their pain. Read about more of my bills here: https://t.co/0SGLCnQ75m

A report released last week stated that 2 Indiana virtual charter schools defrauded the state government $85 million. For several years, I have introduced legislation that would hold charter schools more accountable. https://t.co/2VrEFelTlq
Because of the coronavirus, Indiana's primary election has been delayed until June 2, and everyone will be allowed to vote by mail. Do you support Indiana extending full vote-by-mail to the November general election to further reduce the spread of COVID-19?
