We know we're always in a competitive situation when we seek to attract production facilities to Indiana, so this was a huge win for our state.

In one year's time, we've moved from nowhere to national leadership.

We're very pleased with the potential beyond this one production facility. Indiana now can be ahead of the curve in reducing our country's dependence on foreign oil.

Joe approaches modern agriculture with the attitude and passion that surrounds a successful family farmer.

Most of Indiana fared well in terms of weather and crop yields, but we knew that the lack of rain last summer was going to create problems in pockets of our state. These disaster designations will allow assistance for Hoosier farmers who need it.

It helps us preserve the environment.
