Indianapolis has been recently impacted by both Amtrak and IndyGo service reductions due to the Covid pandemic, additional funding is desperately needed to ensure proper operation and service availability

[Alex Lukens @alexdlukens]

@RepAndreCarson As someone from the Indianapolis area, I urge you to please support Amtrak and mass transit by voting in favor of funding today in the Transportation and Infrastructure committee.

Can we get a #3rdCandidate for the upcoming election? I don't like either of the current options.

Did Trump just shut down the internet?

[Governor JB Pritzker @GovPritzker]

I do not pretend to know the pain that’s experienced by Black America.

As we look for a way forward and to reform our laws and justice system, the leadership here and across the state is so important.

Community activism and peaceful organizing and faith must help show the way.
