One Week Away From State Convention!

John,

We are one week away from our 2024 State Convention, where delegates from across the state will come together and select our nominees for Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General. Our team has been hard at work to put on an amazing convention for all delegates and guests who will be convening in downtown Indianapolis. 

If you plan to join us either as a delegate or guest at this year's convention, our website has information about the schedule, the most convenient Indiana Convention Center entrances, credential pick-up, and other relevant information to help you prepare for the weekend. Indianapolis will be full of excitement with not only our convention, but with the Olympic Swim trials happening right next door. We hope that you will take advantage of the available information to help you plan and prepare for what will be a busy weekend. Click Here for more information!

We look forward to joining grassroots leaders from across our state to continue to build upon the success of the Indiana GOP!

 
Thank you for your continued support and for all that you do.

🤡 Biden's Border Crisis - Political Stunts and Empty Promises 🤥

Earlier this week Joe Biden claimed that his new executive order was going to “shut down” and “limit” asylum claims on the southern border. However, in a not so shocking turn of events - this is yet another failed policy by the Biden Administration that keeps the southern border wide open. Unfortunately, we know this is just more smoke and mirrors from the Biden Administration.

Limit to Joe Biden means: 

• Setting a minimum 4,000 Illegal immigrant crossings into the U.S. every single day or 30,000 a week.
• Giving additional illegal immigrants over the 4,000 minimum a fast-pass entry provided by NGOs and an escort through border ports where they will be granted “parole”.   
• Rerouting illegal immigrants through ports of entry where they will be processed and released into the country to wait for trial.

This sure doesn’t sound like “limiting”. It sounds more like setting a foundation in place to allow illegal immigrants to roam our communities and cities until our justice system can catch up. A system that could never catch up to a minimum of 4,000 new cases EVERY SINGLE DAY!  

Since Joe Biden has taken office, every policy decision he has made relating the southern border has taken the situation from bad to worse...

Biden Border Since Taking Office:

• More than 94 executive actions on immigration, including halting the construction of the wall and reversing Trump era policies.
• More than 9.6 million illegal immigrants have crossed the border since Biden took office
• Created a 2025 budget proposal calling for the elimination of $50 million in border patrol funding.

These policies have created a border crisis like we have never seen. Indiana Republican Leadership has had enough and is ready to take action on Biden's poor policies and constant lies.
