INDIANAPOLIS -- Going into the 2025 legislative session, Indiana House Democrats are focusing on a number of items that they believe will assist Hoosiers, including cutting health care costs, providing property tax relief, as well as cutting down on junk fees and scams. On Wednesday, Indiana State Rep. Phil GiaQuinta, a Democrat from Fort Wayne and the leader of the Indiana House Democratic Caucus, released the 2025 Working Hoosiers Agenda. Indiana Senate Republicans outline agenda for 2025 legislative session "This agenda is about focusing on the basics of what our government can and should be doing for folks who work hard every day to get ahead," GiaQuinta said in a news release from the caucus. "It's about leaving Washington extremism to the cable TV pros and focus on what everyday, working Hoosiers really need." Some of the priorities the caucus featured in its agenda include: Lower the Cost of Living Deliver on property tax relief and increase the affordable housing supply Take on the healthcare industry and save Hoosiers money Cap rising insurance premiums Pause utility rate hikes End the FSSA child care waitlist Crack down on junk fees and scams Fund education Fully fund public schools to relieve pressure on local property taxes Make Pre-K accessible, affordable and universal Support public safety and veterans Secure resources for fire, police and EMS by retaining local control and local funding sources Increase the police and fire retirement fund benefit for those who serve 20 y ears Reinstate full in-state tuition for eligible children of disabled veterans Protect the right to fair housing for veterans Priority 3: Support Public Safety and Veterans  Secure resources for police, fire, and EMS by retaining local control and local funding sources    Increase the 1977 police and fire retirement fund benefit for those who serve 20 years   Reinstate full in-state tuition for eligible children of disabled veterans  Protect the right to fair housing for veterans   Bills to watch in the 2025 Indiana General Assembly session "We aren't the people you see on cable news fighting in Congress and contributing to the frustration and exhaustion Hoosiers have with their government," GiaQuinta said in the release.

We've doubled the enrollment of the 21st Century Scholars program. We've provided additional dementia care support for patients and their families. … And we're here to show you that Indiana House Democrats deliver results for working people."
