Description

In this episode, I sit down for an in-depth political conversation about the future of Indiana House District 29, including Noblesville and the rapidly growing communities of Hamilton County with Coumba Kebe. Local legislative races often shape everyday life more than national headlines, and in this discussion, I explore how state-level decisions impact housing affordability, public education, healthcare access, workforce development, and environmental sustainability across Indiana.

Coumba Kebe brings a public health perspective to the race, and we break down the real challenges facing District 29: rising property taxes, infrastructure strain from rapid growth, and the balance between development and preserving community character. We discuss how the Indiana General Assembly can remove barriers to affordable housing while respecting local zoning and planning decisions. I also press into the ongoing debate around property tax reform and the importance of fully funding essential local services like public safety and public schools.

Education policy takes center stage as we examine teacher pay, school funding, and Indiana’s national rankings. We also dive into healthcare legislation, mental health access, and the broader healthcare crisis affecting working families. Workforce development, small business partnerships, renewable energy, and environmental responsibility round out the conversation as we consider how economic growth can remain sustainable and community-focused.

If you follow Indiana politics, state house races, Midwestern public policy, grassroots democracy, housing reform, education funding debates, healthcare access issues, or economic development strategies, this episode offers thoughtful analysis and direct insight into the future of District 29.
