Agriculture is a High-Tech Industry

Last week, I enjoyed discussing the exciting present and future of Indiana's agbioscience economy at an event in Knox County hosted by AgriNovus and Vincennes University. Indiana is positioned to be a leader in the future of this industry. We have existing expertise in agriculture, life sciences, and manufacturing. We are home to some of the largest science-based agriculture companies in the world. And institutions of higher education like Vincennes and others are prepared to train the next generation of workers.

Greater Bloomington Chamber of Commerce

I spoke at the Greater Bloomington Chamber of Commerce’s Federal Focus lunch about my legislative agenda and efforts to support Hoosier businesses. I’m excited about all of the positive momentum in Monroe County. The assets in and around Bloomington – including Indiana University, NSW Crane, and companies like Cook Pharmaceutical – make this part of the state critical to our state’s economic success. As we implement the CHIPS and Science Act, turn our attention to AI, and work on quality of life measures like housing affordability, we must act with our Hoosier communities in mind.

FIFA Should Recognize Afghanistan Women's Football Team

I sent a letter co-signed by other members of the Congressional Soccer Caucus to FIFA President Gianni Infantino urging official recognition of the Afghanistan Women’s Football Team (AWT). After the Taliban took control of Afghanistan in 2021, the team’s players were forced to flee the nation.

In our letter, we wrote: “We ask that you allow the AWT to represent every woman and girl trapped under Taliban rule. Allow them to play for their country without returning to the brutality of Taliban rule in Afghanistan. Allow freedom and opportunity to prevail in the sport, one that represents so much to those around the world. The women of the AWT are in a unique situation, and we hope one day they can return to their homeland to play the sport without restrictions. Until then, they should be afforded the opportunity to represent their country away from home.”
