Democrats taunt Braun and Young with Billboard

Today, the Democratic National Committee is unveiling a new billboard in Indianapolis, thanking President Biden for providing direct payments and resources to reopen schools and distribute vaccines, and calling out Senators Braun and Young for opposing the American Rescue Plan. By voting against the American Rescue Plan, Senators Braun and Young rejected direct payments of up to $1,400 for 91% of Indiana’s adult population and 89% of children, including 4.3 million adults and 1.7 million children.

This billboard is located on I-465, north of I-70 and just 1.7 miles from Indianapolis International Airport. It will be up for one month. 

Folks in Indianapolis and senators traveling home won’t be able to miss this message: Help is here thanks to President Biden and Congressional Democrats — but if it were up to Senators Braun and Young, Hoosiers wouldn’t be seeing any of the much-needed relief the American Rescue Plan is delivering,” said DNC Chair Jaime Harrison. “Democrats passed this relief package, which is already providing Hoosiers with direct payments and resources to help manufacture and distribute vaccines, because they knew help couldn’t wait. Now, we’re making sure every Hoosier knows it’s no thanks to Senators Braun and Young.”
