Ben FultonHoosiers pay the fourth-highest share of our family budget on hospitals"Let’s just imagine what would’ve happened if they’d passed legislation that moves us from paying a whopping 10.5% of the average household budget on hospitals to 9.5%. That would have saved the average Hoosier family $1,081 this year...we failed to fully address a much larger, more imminent and far more fixable problem that has festered for years—monopolized hospitals."<a href="https://commentaries.cberdata.org/1313/two-key-economic-lessons-in-one-bill" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://commentaries.cberdata.org/1313/two-key-economic-lessons-in-one-bill</a><a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/HoosierMast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HoosierMast</a> <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/INLegis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#INLegis</a>

Kit MaloneFor the third time, <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/INlegis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#INlegis</a> has revived language that would subject people to criminal charges, fines, and jail for being without a home. The cruelty is almost cartoonish, but the real harm this would do to human beings isn't funny. We've scared them off of it twice now, so we know we can do it. Even if you've done it before - please let your lawmakers know how you feel about this.<a href="https://www.votervoice.net/IACED/Campaigns/124755/Respond" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.votervoice.net/IACED/Campaigns/124755/Respond</a><a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/HoosierMast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HoosierMast</a> <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/Indiana" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Indiana</a>

Kit MaloneGreat news! Conference committee struck the language criminalizing homelessness out of SB197. Public outcry still works. Bad news! It could absolutely be reinserted into another bill, and <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/Indiana" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Indiana</a> GOP leaders have indicated they would like to try. So we can't relax just yet. <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/INLegis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#INLegis</a> <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/HoosierMast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HoosierMast</a>

Kit MaloneThe <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/Indiana" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Indiana</a> House snuck language into SB197 to *jail* people for sleeping on public property. It's Dickensian and wrong. Indy doesn't have enough emergency beds to house even *half* the people who need them. Under this change - folks unlucky enough to be unable to get one could face arrest for the crime of poverty. Let your state senator know that you want them to dissent on these cruel, last minute changes:<a href="https://www.prosperityindiana.org/Action-Center" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.prosperityindiana.org/Action-Center</a><a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/HoosierMast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HoosierMast</a> <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/Homelessness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Homelessness</a> <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/INLegis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#INLegis</a>

Kit MaloneOne of the first rules of <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/INlegis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#INlegis</a> is that you never publicly declare victory about *anything* until sine die and I feel like a lot of folks have forgotten that.

Kit MaloneHB1041 passed and while we heard some good fight out of some Dems, far too many turned coward and joined forces with MAGA to vote for this online conspiracy-theorist's fever-dream.It doesn't make me feel better that they are just following the nationwide trend of throwing <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/trans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#trans</a> people under the bus. I can only hope they can find the spine to stand with us when MAGA comes back for adult medical care and our IDs. I'm not confident. <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/INLegis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#INLegis</a> <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/HoosierMast" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#HoosierMast</a>

Kit MaloneEvery year or so someone reasonably serious asks me if I'd be willing to run for some office or the other and I always say the same thing: "No fucking way."I like my continued freedom to be a little out-of-pocket in public, even if that's been reduced somewhat. Kiss that goodbye if you're an elected.Plus the <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/INLegis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#INLegis</a> already pretty much destroys my ability to think and feel normal feelings for 3-4 months per year -- I can't imagine extending that into a full year campaigning, etc.

Kit MaloneIncredible news!Planned Parenthood, LWV of Indiana, and numerous other groups who represent Hoosier women signed a public letter condemning Governor Mike Braun's recent orders attacking transgender people and calling out his bogus, cynical "protecting women" framing.

Kit MaloneI'm begging you to check to see if a bill has actually died before posting a hair-on-fire "alert" about it. There are terrifying bills still moving this session that we need people to concentrate on. Just because you can do a search on IGA.in.gov doesn't mean you know how to track bills. <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/INlegis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#INlegis</a>
