A brief review of the goings-on in #GOP #Indiana:
Our senators are too busy telling the #BigLie to tell the truth about the former president's attack on our democracy.
My rep isn't standing up for much of anything but wants Nancy Pelosi to answer for the breach of the Capitol.
The #GOP super majority in the #IN legislature is now
eliminating gun permits.
removing protections from our few remaining wetlands.
limiting charitable cash bail.
taking over the Indianapolis police force.
removing the few protections Indy tenants have from bad landlords
continuing to allow 'fun' coyote hunts for prizes.
limiting the governor's ability to deal with emergencies like COVID19 - because of course! Indiana only has 12000+ #COVID19 deaths so overreach is an issue.
trying to undo Indy referendum's to upgrade our bus routes.
while continuing efforts to limit women's access to reproductive healthcare, w/ a forced ultrasound law going into effect just a couple weeks ago.
And then there are the coal ash ponds.

"Ash from Indiana's coal-burning power plants is contaminating groundwater across the state, rendering it unsafe to drink. But unlike some other states, Indiana is not requiring utility companies to remove the toxic ash from leaky pits."
