While unemployment is skyrocketing around the country, here in Southwest Indiana we are faring better than our neighbors. However, we must continue to make bringing new and better-paying jobs to Southwest Indiana our number one priority. We have a skilled and talented workforce here and we must showcase our ability to large-scale employers here in Indiana and around the country. Additionally, we must cut bureaucracy and job-killing regulations so that businesses not only make their home here, but they thrive here as well.
