I thank all of the talented students across Indiana’s First Congressional District who participated in the Congressional Art Competition and showcased their creative abilities. Congratulations to Sophia from Bishop Noll Institute on creating such a moving piece of artwork to represent our region in the U.S. Capitol Building.

I congratulate Mayor Melton and the leadership of the airport for their successful application and continued commitment to modernizing critical infrastructure. Investments like this strengthen the airport’s ability to attract additional transportation, distribution, and logistics activity, while creating new opportunities for economic growth, job creation, and private investment throughout our region. https://t.co/WZqs9fc1S9

I appreciate that these federal funds will further provide our Northwest Indiana first responders with the technology and equipment they need to perform their services to the best of their abilities.  I look forward to continuing to collaborate with all of the leaders and members of our region’s law enforcement departments to promote public safety and return our taxpayer dollars to Northwest Indiana through the House Appropriations Committee. https://t.co/0EJgmlSOGe

Thank you to Chairman Crawford for your leadership to highlight this critical issue for American manufacturing and good-paying jobs in light of the important trade discussions in China.  We must continue to do all we can to promote the American steel and automotive industries and ensure that all American workers can compete on a level playing field.

Spoke on the House floor yesterday to stand in solidarity with the hardworking men and women of the United Steelworkers who have been locked out of their jobs for almost two months at the BP facility in Whiting.  I continue to call on BP to lift the lockout and return to good-faith negotiations that put skilled union workers back on the job.

The proposed funding restrictions to the Housing Counseling Grant program will hinder the delivery of effective homeowner and rental counseling services in Northwest Indiana and across the country.  As communities nationwide face skyrocketing housing and utilities costs, we must ensure that this critical program continues to be able to assist families, seniors, and individuals achieve stable and affordable housing.

Enjoyed meeting recently with the leaders and members of the Indiana Fire Chiefs Association. Thank you for your leadership and vital work to promote firefighter wellness and public safety in our communities.

It was an honor to meet with the current class of @inwomenforward during their recent trip to Washington, D.C.  Thank you for your active and inspiring leadership in our communities, and I wish you all the best of luck in your future endeavors!

Political violence has absolutely no place in our communities and social discourse, and we must do more to promote civility and understanding in our public affairs.  Thank you to all of the members of the Secret Service and first responders for your readiness and swift action at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner.

Below is my discussion with Secretary of Commerce Lutnick on working together to urge BP to end the lockout and negotiate in good faith to put our skilled union workforce back on the job.
