Reclaiming the political center for a better Indiana.
Divisive Indiana politicians don’t represent Hoosier values.
THE CHALLENGE
For too long, the loudest and most extreme voices have drowned out sensible solutions. With faith in government at an all-time low, it's time to restore trust, respect, and accountability to our political system—by elevating candidates who represent the center, where most Hoosiers are.
CORE BELIEFS
People over parties
Like candidates for any job, politicians should be judged on their record, character, and impact on those they serve, regardless of whether they lean left or right.
What we stand for
Results over rhetoric
Voters deserve to know where candidates stand on issues that matter and how we all can make a difference.
Patriotism over politics
Our democracy is a precious gift that must be preserved for our children and grandchildren, and we must work together, despite our differences, to protect it.
BY THE NUMBERS
Why it’s time to act
27%
think neither party governs ethically
30%
think both parties are too extreme
64%
think our democracy is in crisis
OUR GOALS
What success looks like
We believe that every Hoosier deserves:
To be heard.
To have an equal voice.
To choose, not be chosen by, their elected leaders.
To have real choices between at least two candidates who will work for everyday Hoosiers.
To not feel like they’re settling for “the least bad option” or given no choice at all.
To be able to choose leaders who have integrity and who will work to earn and be worthy of our votes.
The path to a better democracy is in our hands.
JOIN THE MOVEMENT
Change starts with creating alternatives to party extremes that drive most voters away. Together we can restore fair competition, voter confidence, and choice to Indiana political races.

The bylaws of both the PAC and the not-for-profit corporation state that decisions about what candidates to support and what positions to take on political issues will be made by a Board of Directors, the majority of which cannot come from any one party.
-
Yes, you can find that information under “Directors and officers”.

No. We think that would create potential conflicts of interest.
