Indiana House Advances Redistricting Bill Amid Partisan Debate
Congratulations to Indiana's tremendous Republican State Representatives, led by GREAT Speaker Todd Huston, Bill Sponsor Ben Smaltz, and Elections Committee Chairman Tim Wesco,

Today the Indiana House passed and sent the redistricting bill on to the Indiana Senate. As I've told the media, Hoosiers deserve to have their say on the issues of the day. Our voices are being drowned out by other states that exploit the redistricting process for their own leftist gains. That needs to stop, if the country is to be saved from the radical Left.

This specific map is legally solid. If any group or individual is silly enough to sue, we will defeat their attack in court. As the United States Supreme Court emphasized once again last night, redistricting for political reasons is constitutional. In fact, the Court has said that redistricting belongs in the legislature—in the hands of the people's elected representatives, not judges. And by the way, Rep. Ben Smaltz did a great job with his bill detailing the map.
We can no longer bury our heads in the sand while other states redraw their maps so the Left can destroy what we built over the last 250 years. No more bringing a knife to a gunfight. The Indiana House has acted decisively, and now it's time for the Senate to follow suit.
