BETTER INDIANA ENDORSES VICTORIA WILBURN FOR HOUSE DISTRICT 32

Better Indiana, an independent, grassroots political action committee, has endorsed Rep. Victoria Garcia Wilburn, the Democrat incumbent for Indiana House District 32.

This is Wilburn’s first defense of the seat she won in 2022. Better Indiana was a major supporter in her race and once again believes that it is a critical race to win. Rep. Garcia Wilburn has shown to be a capable leader who deserves to return to the Statehouse. 

“My work in the Statehouse, reflects the values of our district, supporting public safety, ensuring every child has the tools to thrive, and promoting economic prosperity by building healthy communities,” Wilburn states. 

Two years ago, running against Republican Fred Glynn, Wilburn earned 12,508 votes – or 50.5% of the vote, winning by less than 300 votes in one of the states most competitive districts. Garcia Wilburn’s win was seen as a victory for centrist legislation and an affirmation that Indianapolis suburbs are interested in legislators who will represent the the middle class, the middle of America, and the middle of the political spectrum.

Wilburn has demonstrated that she can work across the aisle with her Republican counterparts, but feels that bipartisan legislation is hindered by the supermajority.  Many in the Republican supermajority in the Indiana House are out of touch with the challenges Hoosiers face. 

“We must continue to remain committed to the constituents we serve. Many of you have heard me say, the will of the people is greater than partisan politics and now I have a record in the Statehouse that proves my words. I am committed to the prosperity of the people while ensuring the most vulnerable among us are not left behind and yet there is more work to do. I remain steadfast to the work that is inspired by the issues you present to me,” Wilburn shared.
