Mayor Joe launched Project Indy, a summer jobs program for teenagers that is helping thousands of our young people every year. And this fall, his new Indy Achieves program will be giving students across the city college scholarships.

Indianapolis has added tens of thousands of jobs over the last four years, cementing our position as the tech capital of the Midwest. Mayor Joe is also working to raise pay for working families with a new economic development strategy, in partnership with the Indy Chamber, and working to clawback tax dollars when companies break their promises to the city.

After decades of deferred maintenance on our city’s roads, and the worst winter in generations, our infrastructure must be addressed. That is why, with the unanimous support of the City-County Council, Mayor Joe passed a bi-partisan plan to invest $400 million over the next four years in our streets, sidewalks, and bridges. He ended our city's moratorium on new streetlights and brought back the city's street maintenance teams.

Mayor Joe is growing the police force and has returned IMPD to neighborhood beats so our officers know their neighborhoods, and our neighborhoods know their officers. He’s increased officer pay for first and second-year officers, and invested in new technology and upgrades for our police force. He's also doubled crime prevention grants for grassroots groups and invested in criminal justice reform.
