  • McCormick releases McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Ethics Plan | Jennifer McCormick for Governor

    PRESS ROOM Jennifer McCormick Releases McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Abortion Rights Plan McCormick: “This election is a referendum on abortion rights in Indiana.” < Press Room Jennifer McCormick Releases McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Abortion Rights Plan McCormick: “This election is a referendum on abortion rights in Indiana.” October 10, 2024 Contact: Mila Myles, (812) 240-3938 McCormick for Governor press@mccormickforgov.com NEW CASTLE, Ind.— Today, Indiana Democratic gubernatorial nominee Jennifer McCormick reaffirmed her commitment to restoring the rights and freedoms women relied on for 50 years under Roe v. Wade. As Governor, McCormick will fight to ensure that women have the right to an abortion. This standard was long the law of the land before the recent rollback of reproductive rights. "This election is a referendum on abortion rights in Indiana," McCormick said. "I trust women and their healthcare providers to make the best decisions for their health, and it's time we bring common sense and balance back to our state policies." Acknowledging the legislative hurdles, McCormick outlined several executive actions that can be taken to protect reproductive rights and access in Indiana: Direct the Indiana Department of Health to interpret existing laws in a way that maximizes legal access to abortion services. By clarifying regulations, McCormick will work to reduce barriers that clinics and providers face. Reproductive health funding will be prioritized in the state budget to provide reproductive health services — not anti-abortion advocacy. Shift focus from enforcement to compliance assistance for clinics and providers, creating a more supportive regulatory environment. Appoint abortion rights supporters to relevant state boards and commissions, including the Medical Licensing Board, to ensure the state's policy implementation aligns with trusting women and healthcare providers. Fight to protect the privacy of Hoosiers’ medical records from prying government officials, including terminated pregnancy reports. Use the governor’s office as a platform to defend abortion rights and inform Hoosiers of their reproductive freedoms. Additionally, McCormick will push for legislative change to create citizen-led ballot initiatives to allow the people to repeal Indiana’s extreme abortion ban directly. McCormick’s opponents, Mike Braun and Micah Beckwith, support an extreme abortion ban with no exceptions. Their even more extreme ban, if enacted, would prohibit all abortions, even in cases of rape, incest, or when the mother's life is at risk. "The choice in this election is clear," McCormick emphasized. "When I’m elected Governor, the people of Indiana will have spoken loudly and clearly in favor of abortion rights." Jennifer McCormick’s campaign is focused on restoring balance and common sense to Indiana’s government, and protecting women's rights is at the heart of that mission. ### Fact Sheet: McCormick Commonsense Abortion Rights Plan The McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Abortion Rights Plan will protect abortion rights for Hoosiers, even in the absence of legislative action.

  • Commonsense Utility Affordability Plan | Jennifer McCormick for Governor

    Fact Sheet: McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Utility Affordability Plan The McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Utility Affordability Plan will provide utility bill relief by restoring net metering to Indiana, prohibiting misuse of ratepayer dollars, and prioritizing ratepayer advocates at the IURC. The plan also calls for restoring the Daniels’ era Energizing Indiana energy efficiency goals to lower energy consumption and reduce energy bills for Hoosiers. The McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Utility Affordability Plan has four mechanisms to provide significant relief for Hoosiers: Restoring Net Metering: The plan will reinstate net metering in Indiana, allowing Hoosiers to sell electricity back to the grid at the same rate they purchase energy from it. This change will foster competition, reduce utility costs, increase energy generation, and encourage the adoption of renewable energy. Mike Braun voted to eliminate net metering. Prohibiting Misuse of Ratepayer Dollars: The plan will ban utilities from using ratepayer dollars for lobbying, advertising, trade association dues, and political contributions. This will ensure that utility companies can no longer use funds meant for services to increase their profits at the expense of consumers. Prioritizing Ratepayer Advocates in the IURC: McCormick-Goodin will appoint leaders to the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission (IURC) who are committed to advocating for ratepayers, ensuring that the commission operates to apply the same competitive pressure that would exist if utilities were not statutorily protected monopolies. Lowering Utility Bills by Investing in Energy Efficiency: The McCormick-Goodin administration will reinstate Mitch Daniels’ era Energizing Indiana energy efficiency program to reduce energy consumption and lower Hoosiers‘ monthly energy bills. Historic Rates Utility Average Bill at 1,000 kWh/mo in 2004 Average Bill at 1,000 kWh/mo in 2010 Average Bill at 1,000 kWh/mo in 2023 I&M (AEP) $68.34 $81.45 $147.38 NIPSCO $91.55 $105.55 $156.44 AES $68.92 $85.75 $126.31 CenterPoint $87.54 $132.65 $165.00 Duke $79.20 $96.30 $128.79 STAY INFORMED First name* Last name* Email* Phone (no dashes) By providing your mobile phone number you consent to receive recurring automated text messages from the McCormick for Governor campaign.

  • Jennifer McCormick releases McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Education Plan | Jennifer McCormick for Governor

    PRESS ROOM Former Republican Superintendent of Public Instruction and 2024 Democratic Gubernatorial Nominee Jennifer McCormick releases McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Education Plan Would hold all schools accountable to the same standards, increase teacher salaries < Press Room Former Republican Superintendent of Public Instruction and 2024 Democratic Gubernatorial Nominee Jennifer McCormick releases McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Education Plan Would hold all schools accountable to the same standards, increase teacher salaries August 29, 2024 Contact: Kelly Wittman, (317) 450-5711 McCormick for Governor press@mccormickforgov.com NEW CASTLE, Ind.— Today, Indiana gubernatorial nominee Jennifer McCormick released the McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Education Plan to increase school accountability and academic freedom, ensure academic rigor, and prioritize an education system that empowers Hoosier students to achieve their best results regardless of individual pursuits. “As Indiana’s last elected Superintendent of Public Instruction, I understand the educational realities of today and the future: Hoosiers do not need politicians in their schools,” said Jennifer McCormick. “Respecting, empowering, and paying our educators to ensure academic freedom, holding all schools accountable, working with parents and our communities, and focusing on what is best for kids is prioritizing, not politicizing, education.” The McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Education Plan focuses on creating solid beginnings for Hoosier kids, increasing academic freedom and rigor in the classroom, holding all schools accountable, and prioritizing a world-class education program for Hoosier students. The plan will establish a streamlined, consistent accountability platform for all schools accepting public dollars to educate Hoosier children. The plan will also ensure curricular, instructional, and assessment decisions are made responsibly and according to what is best for our students. “At a time when 90% of our students attend public schools, Indiana has sent over $1.6 billion away from public schools and to private schools in the form of vouchers,” said McCormick. “It’s common sense to ensure these schools are held accountable to the same academic and fiscal standards as public schools.” Jennifer McCormick is the Democratic Nominee for Governor. She was elected Indiana’s Superintendent of Public Instruction as a Republican in 2016. She is a career educator, spending decades serving as a teacher, principal, and rural school superintendent. Her running mate, Terry Goodin, was a teacher, assistant principal, and public school superintendent at Crothersville Community Schools. With two career educators, the McCormick-Goodin administration will ensure that Indiana’s education system has professional teachers who equip their students to pursue their dreams by enrolling in colleges and universities, securing good-paying, skilled jobs, or joining the military. “It’s time to stop experimenting with education, let teachers teach, pay them well, and allow students to succeed,” said Jennifer McCormick. “Our goal is an education system with professional teachers and accountable schools that sets students up for success, whether that means going to college, entering the skilled workforce, or joining the military.” ### Fact Sheet: McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Education Plan The McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Education Plan focuses on creating solid beginnings for Hoosier kids, increasing academic freedom and rigor in the classroom, holding all schools accountable, and prioritizing a world-class education program for Hoosier students. The plan will establish a streamlined, consistent accountability platform for all schools accepting public dollars to educate Hoosier children. The plan will also ensure curricular, instructional, and assessment decisions are made responsibly and according to what is best for our students. The McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Education Plan has five elements to provide Hoosiers access to a fully funded, world-class education: Strong Beginnings: As career educators, Jennifer McCormick and Terry Goodin recognize the education continuum and will prioritize Indiana’s investment in all levels of the educational journey. The McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Education Plan will expand quality and affordable childcare to address Indiana's childcare deserts. In addition, the plan will continue expanding access to PreK education until Indiana has universal PreK. Hold ALL Schools Accountable: The McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Education Plan will protect the rights of students and parents by establishing a streamlined and transparent accountability platform to hold all schools to the same academic and fiscal standards. Let Teachers Teach and Pay Them Like Professionals: As former teachers, Jennifer McCormick and Terry Goodin will champion our K-12 and post-high school instructors by implementing policies to recruit and retain the best and brightest educators. We will fight for a minimum base salary of $60,000 for Indiana teachers and adjust veteran teacher salaries to reflect their non-educator peers. We will uphold teacher rights by protecting the freedom of teacher unions to bargain for wages and benefits. In addition, mandates placed on educators and school boards will be reviewed and, where unnecessary or burdensome, eliminated. Rigorous and Comprehensive Curriculum: The McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Education Plan will call for autonomy at the local level to design a curriculum that prepares students for the future they choose. Academic freedom includes keeping politicians from deciding what books children can read. We will ensure our K-12 system plays an advanced role in career counseling by identifying and funding qualified personnel and the resources necessary to make our programs robust and effective across the state. Post-High School Education Attainment: The McCormick-Goodin Commonsense Education Plan will celebrate, champion, protect, and better fund our higher education institutions and direct workforce development training programs. The plan will protect university tenure and respect the distinction of the skilled trades’ apprenticeships and certifications. The McCormick-Goodin plan will re-establish a statewide emphasis on attaining post-high school education.

  • Statement on Beckwith Nomination | Jennifer McCormick for Governor

    PRESS ROOM < Press Room Jennifer McCormick’s Statement on the nomination of Republican extremist Micah Beckwith for Lieutenant Governor June 15, 2024 INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.— Today, Micah Beckwith was selected to be Mike Braun’s running mate. Beckwith is, by far, the most extreme candidate ever nominated by either party for statewide office. “I refuse to turn Indiana over to a Braun-Beckwith team,” stated McCormick. “They are dangerous, divisive, and extreme–and embody the fear and chaos that has taken our state on a dangerous path.” “This year, Hoosiers will have a simple choice. The freedom to choose or the ban of reproductive freedoms. The freedom to learn or book bans. Democracy or insurrection. I know where I stand and I know Hoosiers have had enough of the Braun-Beckwith agenda.” Beckwith, known for his extreme views and polarizing rhetoric, has a history of making statements and supporting policies that threaten the core values of our democracy and undermine fundamental rights. Beckwith even said that the rioters who desecrated the Capitol on January 6th were “sent by God.” Beckwith supports the banning of books, a position that challenges the freedom of expression and the right to access diverse perspectives in education. He opposes reproductive freedoms, seeking to deny women the right to make choices about their own bodies. Furthermore, Beckwith has demonstrated a marked intolerance of differences. His views and actions have raised alarms about the potential erosion of inclusivity and respect for diversity under his leadership. This November, Hoosiers must choose opportunity and optimism by voting for Jennifer McCormick.
