Holcomb Statement On The General Assembly’s Vote To Override The Veto Of Senate Enrolled Act 5

Governor Eric J. Holcomb offered the following statement:

“As I said last week, Indiana is in an economically enviable position due in large part to the heroic local response to the pandemic that was permitted by a system rewarding speed, collaboration and medical expertise in a time of health emergency. In most cases, the cooperation between local elected officials and local health officials was superb.

“I would have hoped that such sweeping change could wait until we gathered all the relevant experts and stakeholders to strike the right balance regarding local health authority during emergencies and avoid discouraging laudable service in the field of public health, especially knowing that it’s locally elected officials who appoint the local department of health board that hires the local health director in the first place.

“My administration will do just that over the coming months to supply the legislature with up-to-date data before the next regular session.”

After taking last year off due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are excited to announce that the Emerging Leaders Project is back and is taking applications starting today for our 2021-22 class!

An independent nonprofit organization, the Emerging Leaders Project partners with the Indiana Democratic Party to help build our party’s bench of future candidates, leaders, campaign staffers and activists. Each year up to 40 Hoosiers, between 21 and 40 years old, are selected from around the state to participate in this free year-long program. Those selected attend a series of training conferences in Indianapolis that cover all aspects of campaigning for office, public policy and party building.

Learn more about the Emerging Leaders Project and apply to join the 2021-22 class here.

Founded in 2011, the Emerging Leaders Project has helped hundreds of young Democrats become more active in the party and run for office. From congressional candidates, to state legislators, to countywide elected officials to municipal office holders to Democratic Party leaders at the local and district levels, the Emerging Leaders Project has a strong track record of success. See our list of Alumni here!

If you are an Indiana resident between the ages of 21 and 40 and have an interest in running for office in the near future, working on a campaign or just helping to strengthen your local Democratic Party, this program is for you! And if you are a loyal Democrat who knows of an up-and-coming young leader who could help make our party and state stronger, please share this email with them.

Remember, apply before the June 15th deadline here!

Thanks!

Indiana launches Build, Learn, Grow Initiative To Help Working Families

50,000 Scholarships Are Available Immediately In Support Of Hoosier Workers And Their Children

The Indiana Family and Social Services Administration recently announced the Build, Learn, Grow initiative, which is making 50,000 scholarships available to help connect Hoosier children from working families to high-quality early education and out-of-school-time programs. The scholarships will be funded by more than $101 million provided to Indiana by the federal Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act, or CRRSA.

Through the Build, Learn, Grow scholarship fund, Hoosier families working in essential industries with qualifying incomes can receive scholarships for each child age 12 and younger toward their early care and education, summer learning or out-of-school care. Scholarships run from May through October 2021 and will cover 80% of the early care and education program’s tuition. Information is available at www.BuildLearnGrow.org.

“Access to high-quality early care and education is essential to Hoosier families and children,” said Jennifer Sullivan, M.D., M.P.H., FSSA secretary. “These scholarships will help connect hard-working Hoosier families and their children to programs that prepare them for success in school, help reverse learning loss and provide additional support to the families who kept us going during the pandemic.”

For families to qualify for Build, Learn, Grow scholarships, an adult in the household must work in an essential business (examples include health care, human services, retail, restaurant and foodservice, essential infrastructure, media, manufacturing and logistics, religious and charitable organizations and many others) and meet income eligibility guidelines as outlined here. Families will qualify for The Build, Learn, Grow scholarship with incomes of up to 250% of the federal poverty level. For a family of four, that equates to an annual income of about $66,000. Qualifying families should complete the Build, Learn, Grow Scholarship Fund application found here and submit it to their early care and education provider. Families not currently connected to an early care and education program will be able to find a list of participating programs on the Build, Learn, Grow website as they enroll and become qualified. All providers who currently accept federal child care assistance are encouraged to enroll.

To administer the Build, Learn, Grow scholarship program, the Office of Early Childhood and Out-of-School Learning has partnered with Early Learning Indiana and Indiana Afterschool Network, the state’s leading organizations supporting early care and education and out-of-school-time programs.

Early care and education and out-of-school-time programs interested in receiving children with Build, Learn, Grow scholarships can learn more at www.BuildLearnGrow.org.

Bill designating Hoosier Spirit II state plane now law

0
The Hoosier Spirit II is now the official state aircraft of Indiana. As the author of the new law making this declaration, it was an honor to join the Evansville Wartime Museum and the Evansville P-47 Foundation at a recent event unveiling the plane’s new design.

In our nation’s darkest hour, Hoosiers rallied together to manufacture the P-47 Thunderbolt, revitalizing the local economy and changing the outcome of World War II. The Hoosier Spirit II, formerly known as the Tarheel Hal, is one of the only surviving planes produced in Evansville during the war.

After arriving in Vanderburgh County last fall and now redesigned to reflect Indiana’s history, the Hoosier Spirit II is on display at the Evansville Wartime Museum.

MVC Championship To Open On Wednesday Morning

MVC Championship To Open On Wednesday Morning

The 2021 Missouri Valley Conference Softball Championship comes to Cooper Stadium with the University of Evansville softball team set to face Loyola in the opening game on Wednesday at 11 a.m.  All games in the tournament will be carried live on ESPN+.

Last Time Out

– UE closed out the regular season last weekend at Missouri State in a shortened series due to weather

– Friday’s opener was a pitcher’s duel with Izzy Vetter and the duo of Madison Hunsaker and Gracie Johnson putting on a clinic…MSU picked up the win with a run in the 10th inning

– Vetter set her career mark with 14 strikeouts in the contest

– In the second contest, the Bears finished with a 6-1 win

A History Lesson

– This season marks the second time that the University of Evansville has hosted the MVC Softball Championship with the other coming in 2003…in that tournament, Evansville advanced to the championship game to battle Creighton, who won by a final of 6-2

– In the 2019 championship in Peoria, Ill, the Aces squared off against Valparaiso, falling by a 50- final…Eryn Gould went 2-3 with a walk in the contest and was named to the All-Tournament Team

Approaching a Record

– Eryn Gould is set to leave her mark on the UE record book following the completion of her career with records set to fall on both the career and single season sides

– She is just one walk away from tying the all-time program mark of 97 while her batting and on-base percentages are tops in school history

– Reaching base in any way possible has been a strength for Gould, whose .562 on-base tally ranks 15th in the country

– Upon recording her 100th at-bat, she became eligible for UE’s single season marks…her current batting average of .417 is on pace to break the program mark that Staci Hatz set in 1998 when she batted .408…Hatz was the only player in program history to finish a season batting over .400…Gould also has an on-base percentage of .562, which is also on pace for the program mark…Brittany Herald currently holds the UE record of .511, which she accomplished in 2007

New Strikeout Mark

– Izzy Vetter threw the first no-hitter of her collegiate career on May2 against Bradley…just a day earlier, she showed signs of what may be coming as she sat the first 11 Braves batters down in order in the opener

– The effort saw her keep the Braves hitters off balance over the course of five innings…it was Evansville’s first no-hitter since February 16, 2019 when Emily Lockhart accomplished the feat against Southern in the finale of the Roul’s Deli MVC-SWAC Challenge

– With three wins in UE’s four games between April 28 and May 2, Vetter owns 13 wins on the season, the most for an Evansville player since Morgan Florey won 14 games in 2017

– In a 10-inning performance at Missouri State, Vetter set her career high with 14 strikeouts…her total of 190 strikeouts

Putting a Streak Together

– Jessica Fehr has recorded a hit in 15 of the last 18 games while seeing her average rise from .260 to .330

– She has recorded a hit in 22 of her last 55 at-bats…despite an 8-game hit streak coming to an end in the opener against Indiana State, she reached base with a walk before going 2-4 with a triple in game two and has reached safely in each of the last 19 games…in the Bradley series, she recorded five hits in nine at-bats
