Hard-working Hoosiers are being squeezed by rising prices on groceries, housing, and utility bills, while Washington prioritizes wasteful spending, corporate special interests, and tax loopholes to benefit themselves and the ultra-wealthy.
Jamee Decio is fighting for practical economic relief by curbing corporate price gouging, opposing Trump’s reckless tariffs, protecting middle-class taxpayers, and ensuring that Hoosier tax dollars are invested directly back into Northern Indiana businesses and families instead of outside interests.

As massive AI data centers move into Northern Indiana, Jamee Decio is fighting to make sure Hoosier families don’t foot the bill. She’ll fight to stop data centers from driving up utility costs, demand real transparency and community input before new projects break ground, keep zoning decisions in local hands — not Washington’s or Big Tech’s — and make sure communities share in the profits when a data center moves in, not just the bill. That fight extends to protecting Indiana’s prime farmland, water resources, power grid, and standing up for the local jobs and family farms that built this region.
As a proud union member, Jamee will fight to ensure any data center built in the 2nd District uses union labor, and she’ll always put Hoosier workers and communities ahead of corporate developers — defending domestic manufacturing and opposing reckless trade policies that hurt local industry along the way.

No family or senior should be forced to choose between paying for essential care and keeping food on the table. Jamee Decio will fight to protect Medicaid and Social Security for Hoosier families and seniors who depend on them, and oppose any attempt to cut coverage to fund tax breaks for corporations and the wealthy. She also believes every Hoosier deserves guaranteed access to affordable healthcare — without having to give up the private insurance you have if you want to keep it. A thriving Indiana requires a system that protects working families and seniors while empowering local employers and small businesses to compete for top talent.

As we celebrate our country’s 250th birthday, we must remember that we are a nation built and sustained by immigrants.
Immigrants boost the American economy, contributing almost $580 billion annually. We are the leaders of the free world, and it is time for us to live up to the values we preach to the world. Neither the color of your skin nor your status in this country should dictate your protection under the law.
I support a humane and practical approach to border security and immigration reform that honors American traditions while realistically addressing modern challenges and the economic needs of American businesses that rely on immigrant labor.
The American immigration system is broken ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/immigration at this heading)
- American businesses face critical labor shortages in industries like construction, hospitality, and agriculture, and have no legal options to fill the gap. Indiana’s manufacturing and farming sectors rely on undocumented workers, but they do so in legal limbo.
- While the passage of DACA during the Obama administration was a step forward, we have not had comprehensive immigration reform in decades.
- Millions of undocumented workers have lived here for years. They’ve bought homes, raised families, and paid taxes here. Undocumented immigrants paid $97 billion in taxes in 2024 alone. The vast majority have committed no crimes and contribute significantly to the American economy, but have no pathway to legal status.
ICE has failed its mission ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/immigration at this heading)
- ICE was originally created after 9/11 to protect Americans from terrorists.
- Today, corruption is endemic to the organization. ICE operates as improperly trained agents acting outside the law. They terrorize immigrants and US citizens alike, demanding papers in the street and violating due process daily while targeting people of color (no matter their status) without warrants or just cause.
- Billions of taxpayer dollars have been wasted on enforcement efforts that have yielded neither safety nor economic benefits.
The current approach undermines both safety and economic prosperity ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/immigration at this heading)
- Indiana businesses that currently rely on undocumented workers can’t plan or grow when their workforce lives in constant fear.
- The data shows that undocumented immigrants commit crimes at much lower rates than both legal immigrants and citizens.
- ICE raids make communities less safe by inciting violence and destroying trust between community members and the local police, while doing nothing to secure our borders against bad actors or ensure that problems abroad do not become problems at home.

Universal healthcare, working alongside private payers, will enable small businesses to compete for top talent, save taxpayers billions, and improve the quality of life for every Hoosier.
Americans pay more for healthcare than anywhere else in the world, yet our system prioritizes profits over people and leaves working families behind, struggling to afford basic care while insurance companies and pharmaceutical corporations extract wealth and diminish access to care in our local communities.
Indiana families are caught in an impossible bind ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/healthcare at this heading)
- Indiana lags in access to primary and preventive care, and the current profit-favoring system creates massive inefficiency, resulting in the U.S. spending more than any other developed nation while ranking lower in health outcomes.
- The lack of affordable and reliable healthcare traps Hoosiers in a difficult bind: without good health, they cannot work, and without work, they cannot access reliable healthcare coverage.
- A third of Hoosiers live at or near the poverty line. Even for families above that line, many lack adequate coverage, meaning they cannot afford necessary preventative care. Far too many Hoosiers are just one medical emergency away from financial ruin or bankruptcy.
Small businesses are getting crushed ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/healthcare at this heading)
- Small employers must pay tens of thousands of dollars per year, per employee, just to provide basic health benefits.
- Large corporations can absorb these costs and offer better coverage. As a result, they can monopolize talented workers, leaving small businesses and entrepreneurs at a disadvantage.
- When small and local businesses can’t compete for top talent, entrepreneurship and innovation are stifled, local economies suffer, and Indiana’s economic potential is throttled.

Your tax dollars should be working for you, not for Wall Street. While Washington prioritizes corporate handouts and tangles us up in endless, unstable foreign conflicts, hard-working Hoosiers are being priced out of their own homes.
Jamee believes in returning the power of the purse to Congress. She will work to rebuild a resilient free market—one where we cut red tape for small businesses, ensure the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share, and keep Hoosier tax dollars working for Indiana taxpayers.
Priced Out of Indiana ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/the-economy at this heading)
Working families are facing crushing costs for basic necessities like food, housing, healthcare, utilities, and gas.
Frozen Wages ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/the-economy at this heading)
While prices keep rising, Indiana’s minimum wage has been completely frozen at $7.25 since 2009. Because this wage has failed to keep up with the true cost of living, one-third of Hoosiers live at or near the poverty line, which drains the local customer spending power our small businesses depend on.
The Childcare Barrier ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/the-economy at this heading)
The cost and availability of childcare, especially in our rural communities, acts as a direct roadblock to full employment, keeping willing parents out of the workforce.
source ↗ (opens the page at this passage) · decioforcongress.com/policies/the-economy
True technological progress should improve our communities, support our workforce, and expand possibilities and opportunities for Hoosiers. It should never be used as a tool for corporate exploitation that burdens working families or silences local voices. Massive AI data centers must not drain community resources or cost Hoosiers their jobs, farms, or safety.
Common-sense guardrails can ensure that Big Tech pays its own way, respects local control, and operates with transparency to protect our economy, our children, and our natural environment.
AI datacenters require a staggering amount of electricity ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/datacenters at this heading)
Without federal and state protections, the cost of upgrading the power grid to meet this demand is shifted onto residential ratepayers, causing monthly utility bills to skyrocket for families already struggling with inflation.
A single large datacenter can consume millions of gallons of water daily for cooling ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/datacenters at this heading)
In the 2nd District, our agricultural economy depends on the access to cheap, clean water. “Exporting” our water to cool servers for global tech giants is an unsustainable trade-off that threatens our food security, our local economy, and our environment.
The empty promise of job creation is a pattern we’ve seen before ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/datacenters at this heading)
Tech companies often promise economic development, but the reality is a brief construction boom followed by a massive, permanent facility that employs only a handful of people.
Local voices are being silenced ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/datacenters at this heading)
Preemption laws and secretive NDAs have allowed datacenter projects to be greenlit behind closed doors, stripping local town boards and citizens of their right to decide what happens in their own backyards.
The safety and security of Hoosier children, jobs, and communities is taking a backseat to corporate profits
From AI-generated deepfakes to addictive algorithms designed to keep kids glued to screens, the digital safety of our children is being sidelined for corporate profit. Current laws haven’t kept pace with the weaponization of AI-generated media. Additionally, tens of thousands of American jobs are being cut because of AI restructuring.
For the 2nd District’s manufacturing and service sectors, there is a growing risk that loyal employees will be replaced by algorithms that don’t pay local taxes or shop at local businesses.

The President of the United States and members of Congress must be beyond reproach. The Constitution is not a set of suggestions; it is a binding covenant that protects our rights as Americans, and violations of it must be answered.

From the top down, Washington has proven that we need robust, codified ethics reform to ensure our government answers to the people, not to itself.
source ↗ (opens the page at this passage) · decioforcongress.com/policies/accountability
Washington has allowed partisan loyalty to come before constitutional accountability. In a system that relies solely on impeachment to check presidential overreach, a divided Congress guarantees that a president’s party will protect them from justice. No one is above the law, and we cannot tolerate candidates or officials who treat criminal behavior as a tool to secure power.
source ↗ (opens the page at this passage) · decioforcongress.com/policies/accountability
Right now, ethics investigations are largely self-policed by partisan committees within Congress, allowing politicians to shield their allies from accountability while weaponizing rules against their political opponents. Norms and shame cannot be our guardrails; we need objective, nonpartisan oversight to restore public trust.

Pass comprehensive legislation banning members of Congress, the Senate, and the Executive Branch from buying or selling individual stocks, mandating that all personal assets be placed in blind trusts.

Create a centralized, nonpartisan watchdog board with full subpoena power to investigate ethics violations across all branches of government. To prevent backroom cover-ups, all investigation reports must be made available to the public, and criminal referrals to the Department of Justice must be tracked transparently.

Establish a federal framework that mandates that large datacenters fully fund their own infrastructure upgrades and pay a premium rate for energy use, legally preventing utility companies from shifting those costs onto residential customers.

Ban the use of non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) by any public entity negotiating with datacenter developers.

Advocate for local governments to maintain zoning authority, ensuring that the people of the 2nd District—not bureaucrats or tech lobbyists—have the final say on site selection.

Enact federal requirements that prioritize ag over AI. Agricultural and residential water rights must take legal precedence over industrial cooling. If the pumps threaten a farmer’s well or a town’s clean water supply, the servers must be the first thing to shut down.

Advocate for a universal “AI-Generated” watermark icon on all AI media to protect our children, our elections, and our communities from deepfakes. Prevent corporations from using AI as a sole justification for mass layoffs without providing significant worker retraining and severance.

- Establish a system that guarantees access for every American, ensuring choice, but eliminating the fear of going bankrupt from medical bills.
- Take inspiration from models like Medicare and Germany’s healthcare system, where private healthcare coexists alongside universal access. This would mean everyone would have a basic level of guaranteed healthcare access, while still having the option to choose private plans for additional services.

- Work with colleagues at the state level to advocate for solutions that put Indiana at the forefront of healthcare access, even beyond federal improvements.
- Position Indiana as a leader in innovative healthcare delivery, creating both better access and economic opportunity for the next generation of Hoosiers.
- Neighboring states are investing in these innovations and improvements. We must stay ahead if we want Indiana to stay “open for business.”

Smart border security requires implementing effective strategies that emphasize intelligence, advanced technology, and international cooperation. Instead of resorting to chaos or cruelty, we must focus resources on preventing the entry of dangerous criminals and contraband. The United States should also work closely with neighboring countries to address the root causes of migration before they escalate into crises at our borders.

Create a clear pathway to citizenship with a functional visa system ↗ (opens decioforcongress.com/policies/immigration at this heading)
This includes establishing a safe, secure, and simple visa system that allows immigrants to work in areas with critical labor shortages, while also providing a clear pathway to citizenship for people who have contributed to our communities, paid taxes, and have no felony convictions.
Additionally, we must fully fund the vetting process and ensure fair and timely case review by rehiring the immigration attorneys cut by Rudy Yakym and the Trump administration.

Return to constitutional, professional immigration enforcement not biased by politics by reinstating the INS and U.S. Customs and Border Control as separate agencies outside the Department of Homeland Security. ICE’s budget should be eliminated, and the agency disbanded, with any agents who have committed crimes held fully accountable under the law.

Propose a federal minimum wage tied directly to the local cost of living and automatically adjusted annually for inflation. This ensures hard work pays the bills and pumps local dollars back into our neighborhood economies.
