The priorities is the lack of funding for not only public education, but the teachers as well. All sorts of money is being dumped into industrial development, I belive a harder stance needs to be taken on education instead.
I belive if a valid state ID is required to vote, then IDs should be free and easy to obtain. Voting is our right as American citizens, if that is a right, then anything that is required to exercise our right, should not have restrictions or obstacles placed in front of them.
Ensure these projects that keep popping up, ie. windfarms and solar farms, are not just taking up land and shipping the energy collected to other areas. Build substations in these towns or cities and let them use that resource.
The government has to step in at some point, and not let companies buy up homes to turn around and sell at the inflated value. Guidelines, boundaries, or rules need to be set and enforced with heavy fines, which can then be extra funding into the education system.
Voters should be able to voice their opinions and concerns to their elected officials, a ballot initiative is the perfect way for those voters to truly have their voices heard.

At a minimum, reduce the size of the Indiana state department of education bureaucracy by at least one half and transferring the money saved to local school boards and other educational alternatives without increasing the budget line item for education.
HB1286 (Elections) introduced in the 2024 Indiana legislative session provides for a comprehensive and necessary overall of the election system in Indiana. This bill would have provided for voting by secure, hand-marked paper ballots on election day only at assigned voter precincts of no more than 1500 persons with no early in person voting with the results hand counted, verified and reported the same day. Declaring election day as a state holiday or conducting elections on a Saturday to make it more convenient for everyone would greatly facilitate voter participation and enthusiasm. Finally, the practice of "automatic" registration of unregistered voters and noncitizens by the BMV must be ended, if it is still in place.
First of all, the state, in the form of the Indiana Economic Development Corporation (IEDC) must not continue to assume that all natural resources belong to the state, nor should it be allowed to use taxpayer money to fuel and force corporate interests such as the LEAP project in Boone County on the private property and individual liberty rights of Hoosiers. Efforts to impose solar, wind and carbon dioxide sequestration projects are also a threat to natural resources and agricultural land that has enabled Indiana to flourish for generations. Progress is necessary and beneficial but it must be allowed to advance is a natural way by facilitating the means of the free enterprise system and deregulating onerous and ill-conceived restrictions.
Not all problems demand a government solution. In some cases, government exacerbates the problem. As an example of this, it has been reported that the IEDC, the quasi government corporation mentioned in the previous question, is paying incentives to people to move to Indiana, which will further contribute to the housing availability and affordability challenges across Indiana. As Ronald Reagan famously stated, "Government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem." Deregulate the housing building industry and free up entrepreneurial builders and building contractors so they can do what they do best, which is to meet the housing demand using the methods and means provided by the free enterprise system.
Any opportunity to allow voters to directly express their views on important issues should be encouraged and facilitated.
