  1. It’s too bad that Freeman can’t be recalled for refusing to serve. Indianapolis’ roads are trash and he sits on his hands and refuses to stand up for his constituents. If only he fought for good roads as much as fights for Washington Street to have two lanes… two lanes filled with potholes as opposed to one good lane rebuilt and paid for with federal transit dollars.

    There’s more to keeping businesses and residents than just low taxes. They’re not going to stay for terrible roads and bad schools. Indiana Republicans will never learn this lesson.

  2. Freeman should remember he is from Marion County and actually represent his constituents. Indy gets hurt by the Republican legislation on many things – including not including multiple lane roads in it’s funding formula. Hurts Indy and the suburbs and helps rural Indiana. Also, Indiana needs to increase teacher pay-we are lower than all our neighboring states.
