Democrats just got a bill fast tracked to the House floor to give financial relief to veterans — and it passed. 

We're focused on real results and real relief for Americans.

[André Carson @RepAndreCarson]

Today, we honor the brave men and women who served our nation. We must always ensure our veterans receive the care and support they deserve. To all veterans, thank you for your service and sacrifice. Happy Veterans Day.

Thousands of Afghans, many of whom worked and served alongside U.S. troops, sought safety in America. Now they face being sent back to a country where their lives are in danger. This is cruel and wrong.

I’m proud to cosponsor the bipartisan Afghanistan TPS Act to protect them. We cannot turn our backs on our allies.

[André Carson @RepAndreCarson]

Americans have seen families get torn apart. That’s not what we’re about.

When this constituent needed assistance with their federal tax refund, my office stepped in to help. If you need assistance with a federal agency, our office may be able to help. Visit https://t.co/Jiezz4orjV to learn more.

Wondering why your healthcare got more expensive? This is why. ⬇️

It didn’t just affect people on ACA insurance. It hurt the entire system.

Democrats want to reverse this damage and give you some relief.

[House Democrats @HouseDemocrats]

Republicans let the ACA tax credits expire.

Democrats will restore them.

The American people deserve healthcare they can afford.

[André Carson @RepAndreCarson]

Democrats are fighting for an affordable America.

Thank you to Pastor James Green and First Lady Keesha Green for hosting me at Greater Gethsemane MBC’s 100th Church Anniversary! It was an honor to celebrate a congregation that lives by faith.

Every young woman deserves education and opportunity. Thank you to the SHEroes — an Indianapolis organization serving girls in grades 6-12 — who wrote me letters about what they care about, what problems they see in our communities, and the ways they want to make our city and country better.

[André Carson @RepAndreCarson]

Every voter deserves to cast their ballot without fear or intimidation. You can early vote now or on Tuesday, November 3 -- know your rights and make your voice heard. If you experience voter intimidation, report it to the Marion County Election Board at 317-327-VOTE

[André Carson @RepAndreCarson]

NEW: the Marion County Clerk's Office has confirmed 12 federal election monitors will be in Marion County on Election Day. These individuals are permitted to stand outside polling locations — not inside. They are not permitted to hassle voters, and you are not obligated to speak with them. 

If you see anyone interfering with the election process during early voting or on election day, call 317-327-VOTE.

Rivoli Theatre is a landmark on the near east side, representing where we've been and where we want to go. I secured $850,000 in federal funding to support its rehabilitation. This weekend, we lit up its new marquee and a new future for this historic site. 

Thank you @JBNCenters for supporting connection and community!

[André Carson @RepAndreCarson]

I’m proud to have earned a perfect score on the @HumanRightsCampaign’s Congressional Scorecard. I will always stand up for LGBTQ+ constituents and fight back against attacks on their rights.

[André Carson @RepAndreCarson]

Additional early voting locations are open in Marion County! Go to https://t.co/Sq5GCImNqN to learn more.

The Trump Administration is sending election monitors to Marion and Lake Counties, which has some of Indiana's largest Black and Latino populations. This raises serious concerns. Voter suppression and voter intimidation is illegal. We cannot let anyone intimidate us out of exercising our right to vote.

[André Carson @RepAndreCarson]

Out of 92 counties in Indiana, Trump’s DOJ has chosen 2 counties with the largest populations of Democratic voters and Black and Hispanic voters to subject to “election monitoring.”

It’s no coincidence. It’s also no coincidence that it comes just weeks before an election, when Trump has record low poll numbers. It follows multiple, illegal attempts to change election procedures for his benefit, from a president who still maintains the 2020 election was stolen.

Our elections in Marion County are still run by the clerk, who is elected by Marion County voters.

I’m urging everyone to vote as soon as possible. You can vote early at the City-County Building now or at additional locations starting this weekend, which can be found at https://t.co/AKy1sSrItt.

There are so many threats to our right to vote because of how powerful our vote is. Make your voice heard. Vote now.

[André Carson @RepAndreCarson]

At least 33 Americans—including Rabbi Jill Jacobs and congressional candidate Brad Lander—were detained by Israeli forces today while helping Palestinian farmers harvest olives. All those detained for peacefully participating in this harvest must be released immediately.

Palestinians shouldn’t have to risk their lives to harvest their own land. Settler violence terrorizes families and drives Palestinians from their homes and livelihoods, attacks that are enabled by a culture of impunity that treats Palestinian lives as expendable.

The U.S. must protect Palestinian lives by demanding an end to settler violence and the enforcement of real consequences for those carrying out and enabling these attacks.

[André Carson @RepAndreCarson]

Today, my office was alerted to a suspicious letter addressed to me reportedly containing a powdery substance, similar to letters sent to other congressional offices across the country.

I thank local and federal law enforcement officers for their swift response and efforts to keep my staff and constituents safe.

Political violence, threats, and intimidation have no place in our democracy. No public servant should have to fear for their safety simply for doing their job. We cannot allow threats or intimidation to become a normal part of public service.
