Rep. Marlin Stutzman, a U.S. Congressman from Indiana, addressed several policy issues in a series of tweets posted on September 23, 2025.
In one post, Stutzman discussed economic concerns and the potential for government reforms, stating “There are a lot of people who would like to see interest rates reduced to spur the activity in the economy, and those are pieces that we're going to focus on, and then any other reforms and government spending cuts that we could do, or that the administration would find and ask” (September 23, 2025).
Stutzman also commented on redistricting practices in Illinois and Indiana. He wrote "But it is Illinois’s egregious partisan gerrymandering that led Stutzman to make the unusual step of backing mid-decade redistricting in Indiana; Stutzman was the first federal official in Indiana’s congressional delegation to back redrawing Indiana’s map, which could jeopardize" (September 23, 2025).
In another tweet from the same day, he compared business climates between Indiana and Illinois while referencing public safety measures. According to Stutzman: "Finally, Stutzman compared Indiana’s success with businesses to Illinois’s failures next door. In the same way that he supported Trump sending the National Guard to Washington, D.C., he also would support a deployment to Chicago, if Gov. JB Pritzker (D., Ill.) and Mayor Brandon" (September 23, 2025).
Redistricting has been a contentious issue in several states including Illinois and Indiana. Partisan gerrymandering refers to drawing electoral district boundaries in ways that benefit one political party over others.
Indiana has experienced debates over how its legislative maps are drawn as well as calls for increased transparency in its redistricting process.
