Moseley: The people won the redistricting debate

Today, Dec. 11, the Indiana Senate rejected a congressional map that would have carved up the state of Indiana to benefit one party. House Bill 1032 was voted down by a vote of 31-19.

State Rep. Chuck Moseley (D-Portage) issued the following statement:

"The people have spoken, and thankfully, the Indiana Senate listened and acted accordingly. Ultimately, the people won the redistricting debate. Despite Gov. Braun's efforts, my colleagues in the Senate rejected pressure from Washington insiders and put the needs of Hoosiers first.

"This is a good day for democracy, and it's a good day for Indiana. Now, let's get to work on the issues impacting Hoosiers every day: an absurd cost of living, rising utility rates and a health care system that prioritizes profits over people. I look forward to coming in Jan. 5 to fight for District 10."
