Dr. McCray made history in 2024 as the first Black woman to run for US Senate in Indiana. Dr. Val and her Team generated a Primary win in 90 out of 92 counties in her home state. As a psychologist, she knows We The People need a breathable wage.

My former opponent, Jim Banks, will green light all policy that Trump and Musk demand… even if it destroys public safety and American lives.

I will never be beholden to any President or Billionaire.

I promise to take an oath to the Constitution and the country I love.

Survivors of sexual harassment and assault deserve fair treatment under the law.

It's unacceptable that a woman who has been raped, who endured immense pain and trauma, or had to quit her job to escape harassment may face tax burdens on the compensation she rightfully deserves.

Where does the accumulated debt of this country come from? It comes from Republican Presidents going back to Ronald Reagan. 3/4 of the accumulated debt of this country is due to Republican Presidents who didn't pay for their spendingβ€”so much for Republican's being the party of fiscal responsibility.

Rep. Scott Slams Republican Budget Plan
YouTube video by RepBobbyScott Rep. Scott Slams Republican Budget Plan

The Republican budget proposal undermines the middle class by cutting education, health care, food assistance and other essential programs that help millions of American families to fund tax cuts for corporations and the ultra-wealthy.

As Dr. Val travels the state of Indiana, she outlines ways to take action and how to stay laser focused on your advocacy. The rate of proposed policy changes and Executive Orders is like drinking through a firehose and it’s intentional. Focus on three personal priorities.

Together we will ARISE!

The Beloved Community thrives when we commit to action, stand for justice, serve our neighbors, and bridge divides.

Hundreds protest rapid changes from immigration to gender issues under Trump and in state Event in downtown South Bend came on same day as protests at state capitols across the U.S.

Unlike my GOP opponent in 2024, I showed up to debate.

I showed up to events across Indiana to talk to the people to hear their concerns.

So much of leadership is about showing up. I’m keeping my vow.

When I traveled my state, my message of Breathable Wages resonated deeply.

None of us voted for extreme Government Overreach.

None of us voted for higher Grocery Bills.

None of us voted for Elon Musk to get our Private Information.

All of us voted for Breathable Wages.

SHARE my message.

The past few years, while listening to my fellow Hoosiers and witnessing the attacks from the right on our democracy, I asked myself, why not? Why not become the first woman, an African American Woman, to represent the great state of Indiana as a United States Senator?

2025… not backing down.

No one elected Elon – but under his sole authority, America has abandoned babies to HIV, abandoned women in need to their abusers, abandoned our democratic allies to authoritarians, and abandoned any semblance of national decency remaining.

CFPB halts work after Trump appoints Bessent as acting head The consumer watchdog agency was formed in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. Elon Musk wants to β€œdelete” it.

The CFPB exists to protect YOUR data and interests, stand up to giant corporations, and bring BILLIONS of dollars back to the American people who are scammed out of their hard-earned money.

Trump’s appointee just froze the entire bureau’s work. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Senator Andy Kim just went to the USAID building, talked to the security guard there to confirm employees are being barred entry, and then did a press gaggle right there in front to call it out.

This is doing something. This is making an effort on messaging. Other Democratic lawmakers: take notes.

I’ll shoot it to you straight, always. Look for a protest near you. Vet it out. Word on the street is that there’s possible false events. Choose wisely. See you at this one!

With 25 years as a Psychologist,I've seen how U.S. policies impact mental well being. I’ve worked with veterans struggling with PTSD, incarcerated individuals in desperate need of support, youth struggling to overcome the effects of violence, and more.

I have the skills, compassion and fight.
