A New Republican Mayor

In the heart of Lake County, we saw some big news this week -- and a big message sent to Democrats not just here, but around the country.

Longtime Hobart Mayor Brian Snedecor made the decision to leave the Democrat Party and officially become a Republican this week. He made the call after watching his former party continue to move further and further to the left -- staking their ground on issues like raising taxes, opening our borders, eliminating private health insurance, and defunding the police.

A special thank you goes out to Dan Dernulc, Dana Dumezich, and Mike Simpson for your leadership in Lake County and the 1st District and role in this announcement.

Mayor Snedecor said it perfectly, “The efforts of the progressive left have driven many people, moderates and conservatives, away from the Democratic Party."

It's a trend we're continuing to see, with more Hoosiers stepping up and saying that today's Democrats aren't the same Democrats we saw even a generation ago. Democrats are on a radical leftward shift, and Hoosier voters have clearly spoken that Democrats no longer speak for them.

Mayor Snedecor's decision this week expands the Republican majority of mayoral seats to 71 statewide -- more than any party has ever held at one time in state history.

While Democrats go further into the fringes, here in Indiana, Republicans will continue to lead and deliver results.

Gov. Holcomb's Commitment to K-12 Education

Across the state, Hoosier students are back in school. And whether that school is in-person, virtual or a hybrid of the two, Governor Holcomb is committed to making sure that Indiana's schools receive 100% of their funding ([link removed][UNIQID]) -- providing some consistency and certainty for our students, parents and teachers. This includes a $182 million scheduled budget increase for K-12 schools in 2021.

This will be achieved by pushing back the official count of student enrollment to at least December, with the Indiana General Assembly returning for its annual session in January to continue the conversation.

Governor Holcomb has made his commitment to our state's K-12 schools clear, continuing his track record of:
* Grants for high-quality Pre-K available in every county
* A historic $1.6 billion in new education funding since 2017
* 98% of Indiana school corporations reporting an increase in teacher pay last year with Governor Holcomb paying of a teacher pension liability
* PPE available to every Indiana district before school officially started
* Continual guidance from the Indiana State Department of Health

Victoria Spartz Has the Momentum!

Some big news this week out of the 5th District! A new poll from the Club for Growth shows that Victoria Spartz has taken a seven-point lead ([link removed][UNIQID]) in the district's congressional race. She's the voice we need in Washington to stop Nancy Pelosi and regain control of the House.

Read more about the poll here. ([link removed][UNIQID])

Todd Rokita Travels the State

Even through a pandemic, Todd Rokita is barnstorming the state! He recently attended Lincoln Day Dinners at both ends of Indiana - St. Jospeh County and Clark County.

Keeping the attorney general's office in conservative hands is vital this November, and Todd Rokita will always stand up for and defend conservative values and the rights of all Hoosiers.
