Senator Braun’s Weekly Update
This week, Senator Braun urged Congress to approve the USMCA for Hoosiers, penned an op-ed on his two new solutions to combat the opioid crisis in Indiana, welcomed Hoosier heroes to Washington on their Honor Flight for Memorial Day weekend, and celebrated 100 years of a Hoosier tradition on the Senate floor.Â
Senator Braun joined BloombergTV’s David Westin to discuss President Trump’s ongoing trade negotiations with China from a business perspective, and to urge Congress to pass the USMCA: a huge win for Hoosiers and all Americans.Â
Senator Braun penned an op-ed for local Indiana newspapers about his two straightforward solutions with Democrat Senator Ed Markey to help combat the opioid crisis through patient education and better prescriber training.
“These two bills won’t end this crisis alone, but they are simple, straightforward solutions we can start doing today to protect our fellow Hoosiers and Americans from falling victim to a crisis that we’ve already lost so much to.”
Senator Braun joined Senator Todd Young in welcoming Hoosier veterans from Northeast Indiana to Washington, D.C. on their Honor Flight.
“‘My father was a World War II veteran, and I never forgot the lesson he impressed upon me of honoring those who have served our country,” Sen. Braun explained. ‘It was an honor to welcome these American heroes to Washington and as Senator I will fight to ensure Hoosier veterans get access to the resources they need and deserve.'”
“The United States Mexico Canada Agreement should be passed by the U.S. House quickly, said Sen. Mike Braun (R-Ind.). He said he is concerned that Democrats will want to take issue with some of its provisions, simply because it will be seen as a ‘Trump victory’.
“It better be the highest priority here because that is the most important thing. We do more trade with both Canada and Mexico than we do with China, and they are generally friendly in nature,’Â said Braun.”
On Thursday, Senator Braun took to the Senate floor to congratulate the Purdue ‘All-American’ Marching Band on 100 years of performances at the Indianapolis 500.

Otters fall in series opener to Rascals
O’Fallon, Mo. – The Evansville Otters had a tough night Friday at the plate and in the field, falling in the series opener at the River City Rascals 6-1.
River City jumped out to a 3-0 lead through two innings, taking advantage of a pair of defensive miscues by the Otters.
Anthony Maselli, with the sun in his eyes, overthrew Keith Grieshaber at second base in his attempt to get out Andrew Penner. Rob Calabrese then overthrew Maselli at third base trying to tag out Tanner Murphy, but Murphy would touch home to give the Rascals a two-run advantage. Penner would score on a single from Trevor Achenbach, who extended his hitting streak to 21 games.
Maselli bounced back from the overthrow by hitting his first home run as an Otter in the top of the third to make the score 3-1.
From there, Rascals starter Dalton Roach settled in strongly. He went six innings, allowing the home run to Maselli on three hits with eight strikeouts.
Former Otter Tanner Cable came into the game in the seventh and eighth innings, shutting the door on his former team, having two strikeouts.
Otters starter Randy Wynne was chased in the seventh, allowing three of his five earned runs, including a two-run home run to JD Hearn, to give the Rascals a 6-1 lead. In addition to his six run – five earned, – Wynne also had seven strikeouts in 6.2 innings pitched.
The Otters had the bases loaded in the top of the ninth with two outs, but Keith Grieshaber struck out to end the threat and the game, giving the Rascals a 6-1 win.
The Otters had one run on four hits, and a total of three errors in the field.
Evansville will look to bounce back Saturday at 6:35 p.m. when Tyler Beardsley takes the mound for the Otters against Joe Mortillaro of River City. The game can be heard on 91.5 FM WUEV and evansvilleotters.com with Dave Nguyen on the call.
The Otters are having many promotions in honor of celebrating their 25th anniversary season in 2019.
