Fight Biden & the Democrat’s Agenda

Gary knows Joe Biden and the Democrats have been a disaster.

Gary will fight their disastrous agenda, and has a proven conservative record:

On the County Council:
  • Never voted for a tax increase
  • Opposed unnecessary spending
  • Always supported our police

In the State Senate:
  • Voted to cut income taxes
  • Voted to cut utility taxes
  • Voted to freeze the gasoline tax
  • Voted to use state budget surplus to send refund checks to Hoosiers & pay down state debt to the teacher pension fund
  • Opposed to sanctuary cities

Support Law Enforcement

For Gary Byrne, backing the blue isn’t just a slogan. It’s a promise he has made, and kept.

Gary has a proven record of support for law enforcement:

  • On the Harrison County Council, Gary voted for significant pay increases for police & corrections officers.
  • He voted to increase the number of deputies in the Harrison County Sheriff’s Department.
  • He voted, at Sheriff Nick Smith’s request, to fund equipping all Harrison County sheriff’s deputies with body cameras, years before it was “cool”.
  • Gary is endorsed by the Indiana State Fraternal Order of Police.

Schools Are for Education, Not Indoctrination

Gary is the only state senator to have served on a public school board.

For 8 years, he witnessed first-hand how the teachers’ unions often care more about the adults in the school than the kids.

Half of the state’s budget goes to education, and as a conservative Gary knows we need to make sure this money educates kids, not indoctrinates them in junk leftist ideologies like critical race theory.

Gary sponsored (and voted for) legislation to protect girl’s sports from unfair competition by biological males.  Governor Holcomb vetoed this bill, and Gary voted to override his veto.

Stand Up for Rural Indiana

Gary is a 7th generation farmer and has the endorsement of Indiana Farm Bureau AgELECT.

He knows there need to be more strong voices for rural Indiana in state government.

The legislature needs more conservatives with local government and school board experience.

Our country is in a time of crisis, and Gary believes the solution to what ails our nation will come from rural America and from the heartland of states like Indiana.

Fight for the Constitution


Gary is pro-life and believes that life begins at conception.

He supports the Second Amendment and is a member of the National Rifle Association.

Gary believes that the Bill of Rights is not a Bill of Suggestions, and he voted for Constitutional Carry.

He is a conservative and will never vote to raise taxes.

Gary opposes executive mandates and the extended use of emergency executive orders.

Election Integrity & Security

In Indiana, we’re fortunate to have strong voter ID laws, but the 2020 election showed we can’t rest when it comes to improving the integrity of our elections.

Gary knows we need paper ballots marked by the voter, and we need to strongly reject Democrat claims that election integrity is somehow voter suppression.

Only citizens should vote, and steps must be taken to ensure absentee voting is more secure.

If we don’t have free and fair elections, we do not have a free country.

Endorsements


Gary is endorsed by the following organizations:

- Indiana Farm Bureau AgELECT
- IN State Fraternal Order of Police
- Professional Firefighters Union PAC
- Indiana Right to Life

Gary has an A rating from the National Rifle Association.
