Indiana Equality shows character by inviting all three candidates to forum
INDIANAPOLIS, IN –Sean Shepard, Libertarian candidate in the March 11 special election, is being noticed by voters.

"While I am a family man and do believe in family values," Shepard commented, "I also believe in equality and the right of Hoosiers to live their lives. That’s why I’m looking forward to this forum."
Please join Indiana Equality, Sean Shepard, and the other candidates at the Jesus Metropolitan Community Church, Wednesday, February 20, 7:00 p.m. Issues will range from the Federal Marriage Act to military policy. (http://www.indianaequality.org/view/7thCongressionalDistrictForum.aspx)

Here is Indiana's current “tax cut” plan:
• Reduce the increase in tax deductible property taxes and shift the entire tax burden to non-deductible sales taxes.
• Increase the local income tax
• Reduce no government spending
• Result: NET TAX INCREASE
The bipartisan government-reform panel led by Indiana Supreme Court Chief Justice Randall Shepard and former Gov. Joe Kernan recommend the elimination of 1,155 units of government and 5,833 fewer elected officials statewide saving $400 million each year.
We've got to quit governing like this!
Message from former Governor Joe Kernan:

Study shows that Kernan-Shepard recommendations would result in between $200 and $400 million in savings each year
