On Abortion: Women's rights are human rights; codify Roe v Wade

On Civil Rights: Believes racism is still a cancer on the United States

Is concerned about the white nationalism and antisemitism growing in our country thanks to extremists' ugly rhetoric and is someone who believes racism is still a cancer on the United States. Source: 2024 Indiana Senate campaign website MarcForIndiana.com Sep 11, 2023

On Civil Rights: Stand up for LGBTQ youth being used as political pawns

Will stand up for the LGBTQ youth who are being used as political pawns by mean-spirited, calculating Republicans who needed a new social wedge issue after Roe v Wade was overturned by the Republican Supreme Court majority. These vulnerable children deserve our help, not scorn, and their healthcare decisions should be left up to their families and compassionate, qualified doctors, not political opportunists.

On Drugs: Will push to reclassify marijuana as a Schedule 3 drug

Will push for marijuana to be reclassified at the federal level from a Schedule 1 drug to a Schedule 3. [OnTheIssues explanation: Schedule 1 refers to drugs such as heroin, LSD, and currently marijuana, defined as having "no currently acceptable medical use and a high potential for abuse." Schedule 3 drugs are still "controlled substances," such as Tylenol with Codeine. The result of reclassification would be to reduce penalties for marijuana possession.] Source: 2024 Indiana Senate campaign website MarcForIndiana.com Sep 11, 2023

On Education: Teachers shouldn't fear being fired over a book or movie

Believes teachers and librarians deserve our help and respect and not the threat of losing their jobs or getting shot. They shouldn't have to fear being fired over a book or movie. Source: 2024 Indiana Senate campaign website MarcForIndiana.com Sep 11, 2023

On Energy & Oil: Will take immediate action on global warming

Wants to leave our planet better than we found it for our children and grandchildren and will take immediate action on global warming. Source: 2024 Indiana Senate campaign website MarcForIndiana.com Sep 11, 2023

On Government Reform: Committed to confirming fair and impartial federal judges

Is committed to confirming fair and impartial federal judges, not like the partisan appointees that have been foisted on us by Mitch McConnell, the Republican Party. We deserve judges who don't lie to get confirmed or accept generous gifts and travel from wealthy patrons. Source: 2024 Indiana Senate campaign website MarcForIndiana.com Sep 11, 2023

On Gun Control: Ban military style assault weapons, pass red flag law

Will work for a ban on the sale of military style assault weapons--the weapon of choice for the mass murderers of our children and other innocent victims and will fight for a national red flag law. Source: 2024 Indiana Senate campaign website MarcForIndiana.com Sep 11, 2023

On Health Care: Lower drugs costs; push for Medicare for all

Will work to lower drug costs and bring adequate medical care to all parts of Indiana and will push for Medicare for all citizens. [OnTheIssues explanation (from HHS.gov): Current eligibility for Medicare includes all citizens over 65 years old; or younger citizens who have disabilities or specified serious diseases. The result of "Medicare for all" would be to expand the Medicare program instead of private health insurance or other government programs].

On Tax Reform: No more gratuitous tax cuts for the rich and corporations

Is committed to no more gratuitous tax cuts for the rich and corporations who use the windfall to buy back and drive up the price of their own stock. Source: 2024 Indiana Senate campaign website MarcForIndiana.com Sep 11, 2023
