Why isn't Mark Messmer available for an actual debate? Voters have a right to better understand both candidates.

Let's do it as soon as possible!

Mary Allen for Congress clearly listens to voters. Mark Messmer not so much.

End corruption! Full comprehensive ethical reform in Washington.

Vote for Mary Allen for Congress, if you believe in principled transparent leadership.

After more than 700 days in Congress, Messmer recently sent mailers claiming that “Congress should work for you. Not for themselves.” It might not be a coincidence that recent polls show that corruption is now the most important issue to American voters.

He co-sponsored H.R.7008 that claims to end insider trading, but there are some problems with the bill.

Unfortunately, H.R.7008 only applies to NEW stock purchases, meaning that any insider trading would still be allowed on stocks Members of Congress already own. It also included requirements for you to have to register or re-register to vote in-person at your county clerk’s office, including significant documentation requirements, which are particularly challenging for our elderly or disabled populations and women who have gotten married.

The Restore Trust in Congress Act (H.R.5106) is a bill that would outlaw all stock trading by members of Congress. It would prevent members of Congress from trading or owning individual stocks, except for in a blind trust. Messmer supports it. Mary wants to take this reform a step further. She supports the Restore Trust in Government Act (H.R.6731), which would place those guidelines on Members of Congress and extend them to the executive branch.

When you send Mary to Congress, she’ll work for comprehensive ethical reform that gets big money out of politics. She is part of Take BAC Congress, a group of candidates committed to term limits, overturning Citizens United, banning all Congressional stock trading, a moratorium on becoming a lobbyist after serving in Congress, and enacting an enforceable code of ethics for the Supreme Court.

Mary’s been talking about corruption since her very first speech as a Congressional candidate, and when you send her to D.C, she won’t stop.

Fairness, integrity, dignity: Verkamp for Dubois Circuit Court Judge 🇺🇸

10/23/2026

Spencer County is facing some of the biggest decisions it has made in a generation. Indiana Michigan Power has filed to build a 1,520 megawatt gas plant at Rockport, and Tenaska wants to build another plant that would pull about six million gallons of water a day. At the Grandview forum, the moderator asked both state senate candidates whether we have taken campaign contributions from energy companies. The appointed senator said he has. I said I haven’t, and I never will. The people who decide where these plants go and who pays for them should answer to you, not to the companies building them.
