They Called It the "Stop Illegal Entry Act."

Frank Mrvan Called It "Good Legislation."

H.R. 3486 imposed extreme mandatory prison sentences... 5 years to life... on asylum seekers. On teenagers. On people just trying to reunite with their families.

The ACLU called it "one of the most extreme federal sentencing expansions in recent history."

94% of House Democrats voted NO.

Frank Mrvan voted YES.

In a district where East Chicago is majority Latino....

Where Gary's immigrant families built the steel that built this country...

Where Hammond's working families know their neighbors by name....

Their congressman looked at all of that... and voted to lock up asylum seekers. Mandatory minimums. Five years to life. No judicial discretion. No exceptions.

That is not a Democrat.

That is not what we sent Frank to DC to do.

LaVetta Sparks-Wade was not born into this race.

She is a former senior executive in government and nonprofit organizations. She holds a Master's in Public Affairs. She has spent her career building the programs and institutions that actually serve working families in Northwest Indiana... and she is done watching an incumbent vote along with MAGA Republicans to dismantle them.

She knows exactly how policy gets made in Washington. She knows what mandatory minimums do to communities. She knows what fear does to families. And she knows the difference between a Democrat who fights and one who just shows up to vote with the other side.

She's not going to Congress to learn on the job. She already knows the job.

Northwest Indiana deserves a representative who votes like they live here. Frank Mrvan doesn't pass that test.

The primary is May 5th.

The machine is already behind Mrvan. The PAC checks are already written. The party insiders already made their pick.

The only thing standing between him and another term is you.

Chip in $5, $15, $25, or $50 right now.

Every dollar funds the campaign that says: Not in our district!

Because Northwest Indiana deserves a fighter.
