This deal could raise the already high electricity bills for Hoosiers, and I will continue holding utility companies accountable.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.gov · 5h
A public utility company should answer to the public, not shareholders. Hoosiers should not have to carry the burden of high electricity costs. That is why I led a bipartisan letter urging federal regulators to reject BlackRock's proposed acquisition of AES.

Hoosier farmers are spending $1,804 more this year just to fill up their tanks. This is the cost of Trump's war.

Speaker Johnson sent Congress home early instead of holding a vote on common sense AI regulations — giving a free pass to tech billionaires. I joined 106 of my colleagues to demand Congress take action. The risks are clear and urgent, and we need to act now. carson.house.gov/media/press-...

Today, we remember the thousands of lives lost from September 11, 2001, and honor the courage of the first responders who answered the call. 25 years later, we will never forget.

Challenging this administration in court is one of the most effective tools we have, and it’s a tool we’re going to keep using.

NEW: 261 Democratic and Republican lawmakers have come together to challenge Trump in court – this time, Trump’s attempts to limit mail-in voting.   Reminder: even Donald Trump votes by mail. It’s safe and secure.

Reports indicate ICE arrests in Indianapolis are surging. I just launched an official Congressional inquiry into ICE's presence in Indy — and I'm making sure you can access help and resources if needed.

Hoosiers have organized nearly 60 events across the state for a weekend of public witness to stop ICE detention at Miami Correctional. Learn more at indianaorganizing.org

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.gov · 28/08/2026
ICE confirmed nearly 800 failures to deliver medication adding to this facility's already troubling record of mistreatment and failure to meet legal standards. The people of Indiana deserve transparency and accountability. ICE detention at Miami Correctional Facility must end.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.gov · 28/08/2026
After visiting Miami Correctional Facility in Indiana and demanding answers from ICE, I held a Report to the Community to share what we have learned about the conditions inside.

Today, as voting rights are under attack, we find ourselves fighting for those same promises. We must keep fighting until those promises become reality for all Americans.

63 years ago today, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and other civil rights leaders brought thousands together for the March on Washington to demand freedom and economic opportunity for African Americans.

Donald Trump votes by mail. But he wants to make it so you can’t. 
 
The Supreme Court just  failed to block the president’s plan to restrict mail-in voting.

I'm backing Indiana's request for a federal major disaster declaration to bring more funds to our state. But we also need long-term accountability and change from utility companies that put profits over people.

Gary residents have been without power for two weeks. Their electricity bills have been going up for the last two years — while their utility company rakes in huge profits.

Indianapolis is recovering from record-breaking flooding, and I want to make sure Hoosiers know what resources are available.  As recovery continues, I am working to ensure Indianapolis gets the federal resources it needs to recover and rebuild.

We’re in an affordability crisis. The average Hoosier is paying $3,300 more a year for basic expenses under this administration.

Careers in the aviation industry are incredibly gratifying — and we need to prepare the next generation of workers. The Aviation Institute of Maintenance in my district is one way Hoosiers can learn the skills necessary to work in aviation maintenance and trade technician positions.

The president has signed an emergency declaration for Indiana to provide federal assistance in the aftermath of catastrophic floods. I will be working with the city to help secure new funds for recovery efforts.

Indianapolis: follow the advice and directives of local authorities as we navigate severe flooding. Residents in Ravenswood and Rocky Ripple are strongly advised to evacuate. I’ll continue monitoring conditions—if necessary, I’m prepared to work to bring federal resources to Indianapolis.

As costs continue to rise, more families than ever need help to put food on the table. I helped pass out groceries at the Gleaners Mobile Food Clinic—and I’ll continue fighting to ensure no one goes hungry.

I will continue fighting to protect Head Start.

Congressman André Carson @carson.house.gov · 04/08/2026
I would not be where I am today without Head Start. I know firsthand what this program means for children and families. But President Trump wants to strip away the standards that ensure quality education and family support, threatening a program that has helped generations of children succeed.

I continue to call for an end to ICE detention at Miami Correctional Facility, a full and transparent investigation into injuries and deaths, and accountability for any failures that put lives at risk.

After my oversight inquiry into Miami Correctional Facility, ICE acknowledged that detainees missed nearly 800 prescribed medication doses. These admissions raise serious concerns about the conditions inside the facility.

NEW: I just released ICE’s response to my inquiry on conditions at Indiana’s Miami Correctional Facility.   ICE acknowledges they failed to provide a staggering 799 doses of medication. ICE has a clear & duty to protect the health and safety of everyone in its custody – and they are failing.

As AI plays a growing role in our national defense, Americans deserve transparency and accountability. This past week, the House passed my amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act requiring public reports on how the military is using AI and what safeguards are in place.

Mississippi officials retained some of Nolan's body parts, so yesterday’s independent autopsy leaves more questions unanswered.  Justice for Nolan.

Nolan Wells' family is experiencing every Black family's worst nightmare. Not only are they suffering the unimaginable grief of losing a child, they're not getting the truth, transparency, or accountability.

Yesterday, the House passed my @aclu.org endorsed amendment requiring public reports on how the military uses AI.   Weapons of war shouldn’t be handed to algorithms without human judgment and strong safeguards.
