There are two political parties in Indiana: the insiders and the outsiders. Chris is an outsider.
There are large institutions who pay for lobbyists, make campaign contributions, buy legislators, and block reform.
And there are weak politicians who take their money.
Too many in our state legislature are complacent and ineffective in solving our problems.
I'm running to take on the elites, and get things done.
This legislature has passed a municipal local income tax, wheel tax, tolls on the interstates, and a restaurant tax. Enough is enough.
Utilities like NIPSCO are monopolies, and when they raise prices, there's nothing you can do about it. They need to be audited and gotten under control.
Hospitals and insurance companies conspire to keep prices secret so you pay more. You can't shop for the lowest price. I will lower the cost of healthcare by forcing them to publish prices and stick to them.
I will support legislation to give you full visibility into what they're teaching your kid -- and give you the power to change it.
Chris was raised in a small town in a rural county. His father was an auto mechanic and his mom a school lunch lady. He traveled dirt roads on the way to school. He had a rifle and a dog.
He got his first paying job at age 12. He delivered newspapers, shoveled walks, sold Christmas cards door-to-door, and washed dishes in a restaurant.
He did well in school and got into Princeton as a scholarship kid. He paid for much of it by opening a bartending school.
After college he served as a congressional staffer during the Reagan administration. He later became a self-taught software engineer.
Chris is a business owner. He starts software companies. He and his teams have written and sold millions of dollars worth of software, and his software has been used by millions of people in 12 countries.
Chris took on the elites. When Chris arrived in Chicago, he didn't like what he saw. He saw a corrupt political culture where the insiders got the deals, and everyone else got the bills.
He worked the streets for anti-machine candidates. He got followed and hassled by thugs. The Left tore down his signs, sent protesters, and threw a molotov cocktail through the window of the office where he and his fellow volunteers worked.
It didn't stop him. Chris got elected chairman of the Chicago Republican Party to represent the 200,000 people who oppose the Chicago machine. And then he went to war.
Chris is the hard-charging fighter we need to shake up Indianapolis.
No one will be more aggressive in getting things done for you.
