I
Highlighted
Police
Week
and
Passed
Legislation
to
Improve
Mental
Health
Services
for
Officers
Yesterday
marked
the
start
of #NationalPoliceWeek.
To
all
of
our
men
and
women
in
blue,
thank
you
for
standing
on
the
front
lines
to
protect
our
communities.
A
couple
of
weeks
ago,
Senator
Donnelly
and
I
introduced
the
“Law
Enforcement
Mental
Health
and
Wellness
Act”.
Today,
that
bill
passed
the
Senate
and
will
now
move
on
to
the
House
of
Representatives.
This
bill
works
with
the
relevant
federal
agencies,
mental
health
providers,
and
broader
law
enforcement
community
to
offer
opportunities
for
care.
When
our
police
force
is
healthy
and
strong,
our
communities
are
healthy
and
strong
too.

Anderson,
Indiana
Family
Harmed
by
Ethiopian
Government’s
Adoption
Freeze
The
Ethiopian
government
has
indefinitely
suspended
foreign
adoptions,
which
leaves
dozens
of
near
completed
and
completed
adoptions
in
limbo.
The
Oren
family
from
Anderson
is
caught
in
the
middle
of
this
tug
of
war.
Thanks
to
the
Oren
family
for
letting
us
tell
their
story, and Kevin
Rader and WTHR-TV for
helping
us
shed
light
on
this
issue.

Our

I
gave
the
commencement
address
at
the
graduation
ceremony
of
Trine
University.
I
emphasized
the
importance
of
using
our
shared
mission
of
attaining
the
common
good
in
order
to
create
a
better
world
for
everyone.
I
also
shared
some
thoughts
on
the
value
of
knowing
where
the
nearest
Taco
Bell
is.
