LIVING ALONG THE OHIO RIVER
Indiana Votes Red Again!
What Does it Mean for Policy, Jobs & Housing in Evansville?
We sat down with Tim O’Brien (State Representative, House District 78) and Steve Bartels (District 74) to discuss the election results and their impact on Southern Indiana.
🗳️ Election Results: Indiana remains a red state, with Donald Trump’s continued popularity reflecting the conservative leanings of voters. Economic concerns like inflation and high gas prices heavily influenced this trend.
💼 Economic Growth & Jobs: Indiana’s Republican leadership is focused on job creation and fostering a business-friendly environment. In 2023 alone, the state secured $28.7 billion in capital investment, driving economic growth and stability.
🏡 Housing Initiatives: Addressing a statewide housing shortage, especially in rural areas, Indiana launched a $75 million Residential Infrastructure Loan Fund to support affordable housing, complemented by property tax relief for seniors and homeowners.
📈 Fiscal Policies: Indiana enacted its largest-ever tax cut, reducing income tax rates to 2.9%, the lowest in the nation for states with income taxes.
🚧 Infrastructure Progress: With key projects like the I-69 corridor and Ohio River Bridge, lawmakers are prioritizing roads, broadband, and connectivity—vital for rural areas like those in District 74, which face challenges with infrastructure and reliable internet.
🩺 Healthcare Needs: Access to healthcare remains a critical issue, particularly in rural areas. Steve Bartels highlighted the need for essential services such as running water, reliable internet, and better healthcare infrastructure in underserved areas. Improving healthcare access is essential for supporting these communities.
✨ Regional Development: Programs like Regional Cities Initiative (READY 1.0 & 2.0) have brought millions in state investments to rural and underserved areas, boosting Evansville and Southern Indiana.
Despite challenges, Indiana’s leadership continues to focus on economic stability, housing solutions, and essential services, ensuring that communities thrive.
