Defense Policy

Workforce
Indiana- and the nation- must grow out of these challenging economic times and learn from the choices that brought us to where we are. The government should take steps to reward those who seek out jobs and careers that will enable them to support themselves and their families. We should enact policy that allows the businesses to hire, invest, and expand into stability and success.
