Rally for Change!
On Saturday, I held a Rally for Change at the American Legion in Sellersburg. I was joined by local veterans and my wife, Betty, and my youngest daughter, Libby. We had a great turn-out with supporters chanting "Time for Change." And it is time for change.
Our current Congress—and Congressman Mike Sodrel—took pay raises for themselves while cutting benefits for our brave troops and veterans. Our current Congress also took pay raises but voted against increasing the minimum wage and has let healthcare costs skyrocket for hard-working Americans. This same Congress tolerated leaders who have been indicted, convicted, and bribed, and even coddled a child predator.
Our current Congress is in shambles and our leaders have their priorities completely out of whack. We need a change. The 9th District needs a representative who will stand up for the people of Southern Indiana, including our veterans and military families, and not be a rubber stamp for the administration. As your representative, I’ll bring strong Hoosier values to Washington and fight for the hardworking people of Southern Indiana.
I want to thank everyone who came out to the rally on Saturday. I know it was a little chilly, but I can't tell you how much your support means to me. In these last remaining days, I hope you will help me spread our message that if you want change in Washington, then change the people you send.
