Here’s the plan:

R- Repair the criminal justice system by expanding intervention efforts to keep people out of traditional courts and prisons

E- End police brutality with new training procedures to eliminate excessive force

F- Funding an intersectional approach to public safety by reprioritizing taxpayers dollars

O- Oversight through no-tolerance accountability policies and procedures

R- Rebuild our communities by investing in sustainable community development

M- Marijuana decriminalization

In Indiana, Black adults are 5 times more likely to be sent to prison than white adults. This plan introduces a holistic, more equitable approach to criminal justice designed to eradicate the disproportionate effects of the system on Black and Brown Hoosiers.

U.S. Congress, Indiana 8th District

A lifelong Hoosier from southern Indiana, Thomasina Marsili’s life began in rural Spencer County, where at 16 she not only built trails at the Lincoln National Boyhood Memorial, but also earned a spot in the trail-blazing movie, A League of Their Own. Thomasina saw early success in her two decades managing multi-million-dollar corporations, earning the title of Hotel General Manager by age 20. A graduate of Marian University, she holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology and is a member of Psi Chi and Phi Theta Kappa honor societies. She is an educator, small business owner, nationally registered EMT, certified life coach, and motivational speaker. It is her passion to bring recognition to the inequities within our rural areas and give voice to the voiceless.
Thomasina’s vision for the future as 8^th District Representative includes bringing higher-paying jobs to the district through improving access to high-quality education and apprenticeships, diversifying economic development efforts, and securing a living wage. She will improve public education by increasing teacher salaries, expanding education funding to specifically assist low income and rural areas, stop the privatization of public schools, and expanding student loan forgiveness programs for public school educators. She will fight for healthcare for every Hoosier.

State Representative, Indiana House District 76

Steve Folz grew up on the west side of Evansville, attending St. Agnes Grade School and graduating from F.J. Reitz High School. He has worked in the construction industry for 40 years, currently as an employee/International Representative for Laborers’ International Union of North America (LIUNA), working with various construction contractors and companies Indiana and surrounding states. Steve was raised to value hard work and has lived those ideals, from running jackhammers, helping to build roads, bridges, and buildings, to negotiating contracts with employers so that employees can earn a fair wage with affordable benefits.
Steve wants to bring a problem-solving approach to State politics and believes that Democrats, Republicans, and Independents need to work together to solve problems for our communities and families. He strongly believes that we must bring our democratic form of government back to the people – and on their front porches. He’s running for State Representative out of his concern for the lack of well-paying jobs in the region, the declining high school graduation rate, the ever-increasing cost of a college education, and the growing opioid epidemic.
Steve has served on the Vanderburgh Redevelopment Commission, supports Dollars Against Diabetes, Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, and Riley Children’s Hospital. He and his wife, Jackie, have been married 43 years and reside on Evansville’s West side.
