From a constituent in Leavenworth, INStop Project 2025 and the Heritage Foundation Before it is too Late
The American people were told that Project 2025 would not be influencing our government if it was won by a Trump administration. We certainly never elected the Heritage Foundation to run our country. However, here we are with the these players calling the shots! Leonard Leo, The 85 Fund, Schwab Cha

From a constituent in Mount Vernon, INSenator Banks, You Are Supposed to Represent ALL Hoosiers
The rhetoric that you share on Fox, CNN, on social media, and what you say to them face to face or through your staff towards your constituents and fellow Americans is below a senator. Your job is to represent your constituents, ALL of your constituents, in a meaningful and professional way. You do

Signalgate is not over; I am horrified by the disregard for the safety of our troops and proper procedures and horrified by the response from Hegseth, Gabbard, Ratcliffe and the White House: lies, denials, deflections, "cannot remembers" from people tasked with grasp of detail and personal attacks o
From a constituent in Leavenworth, INStop Putin! Help Ukraine!
Apparently Putin is not negotiating in good faith. Putin has called up 160,000 Russian men aged between 18 and 30 on March 31 as part of the Kremlin’s annual spring conscription cycle. I want our country to punish Putin with the harshest penalties that we can leverage. I also hope that we continue

From a constituent in Indianapolis, INStop These New Tariffs Now
The tariffs enacted by President Trump yesterday are the largest tax increase on the American working class since at least World War II and, potentially, the largest since 1913. I am deeply dismayed by this large increase in a federal consumption tax that was designed to offer small scale support

From a constituent in Huntingburg, INTariffs Tax Americans! I didn’t fail economics like so many others.
The president’s severe tariffs are not a tax on foreign companies—they are a tax on the American people. Consumers, workers, small businesses, and farmers are shouldering the cost, and the ripple effect is already triggering a dangerous global economic downturn. These actions threaten to plunge us i

From a verified voter in West Lafayette, INTariffs are taxes on YOUR constituents.
Tariffs are taxes. This is ridiculous and painful for your constituents that are already suffering from low wages, layoffs, and price increases. Tariffs will compound this pain tenfold. Economic instability doesn't bode well. You can choose if your party is going to walk us into a recession. Unche
From a constituent in Leavenworth, INForget the 2017 tax cut
I never saved on taxes with the 2017 Trump tax cuts. So I don’t care if they stay. My tax situation was the same before it was implemented as after. I was retired from teaching in 2015 and even paid more taxes after the supposed cut. Everyone in my area saw the same outcome. I just wish wealthy peo
From a verified voter in Selma, IN“You seem like a clown”
My mother is a recent widow and just turned 80. To hear all of you speak about her, a constituent, as a “parasite” or “because you seem like a clown” is disappointing and discouraging. When I worked in the Reagan White House and in the Pentagon on his projects, I never would have thought he would

From a verified voter in Pekin, INSenator Banks: Address constituents' concerns with empathy, not insults
Senator Banks needs to treat federal workers who have lost their jobs with respect and empathy.

From a constituent in Indianapolis, INGood morning, I was glad to see that Indiana’s Republican representatives to Congress continue to set an example of maturity and class after seeing a video of Jim Banks calling a fired federal worker a clown, telling them that they probably deserved it.
