“This is the best part of the job: visiting Hoosiers where they live and hearing about what they really have on their mind. Every county has its unique challenges and opportunities, and I can’t tell you how many people come up to me to say how excited they are to see someone who represents them in their hometown.I take what I hear on my 92 County Tour with me to D.C. to stand up for Hoosiers and get results.”
— Senator Mike Braun
