Action Checklist for Tomorrow:


  1. Email the Digest and Fact Sheet to H76@iga.in.gov.

  2. Check the House Committee Schedule daily.

  3. Prepare 5 copies of the Fact Sheet to hand to the committee clerk when you arrive to testify.

Would you like me to find a list of local Indiana advocacy groups that might be willing to co-sign your proposal to give it more "Unity" weight? To move the Indiana Shield Act forward in the 2026 Regular Session, you need a professional legislative packet. This packet mimics the official style of the Indiana General Assembly (IGA) to show Representative McNamara that your proposal is "shovel-ready."

Below is your complete toolkit: a Bill Digest, a One-Page Fact Sheet, and a Testimony Script.

1. The Bill Digest (Technical Summary)

This is the language the Legislative Services Agency (LSA) uses to describe the bill on the IGA website.

DIGEST OF PROPOSED THE INDIANA SHIELD ACT

Statute of Limitations; Child Exploitation; AI Monitoring. Amends IC 35-41-1 to remove the statute of limitations for Level 1 and Level 2 felony offenses involving a child victim. Establishes a two-year civil revival window for previously barred claims. Requires the Indiana Department of Correction (IDOC) to implement artificial intelligence monitoring protocols for high-risk sex offenders. Directs a portion of Project Awaken funding toward advanced forensic interviewer training. Effective July 1, 2026.

2. The One-Page Fact Sheet

Print this out or attach it as a PDF. It uses the "data-driven" style favored by the House Courts and Criminal Code Committee.

FeaturePolicy ActionHistorical/Legal Precedent
Justice Without DelayRemoves all time limits for Level 1/2 child sex crimes.Follows federal standards set by the Adam Walsh Act.
Survivor RecourseCreates a civil "revival window" for past victims.Mirrors successful laws in 20+ states to hold institutions accountable.
Tech-First SafetyMandates AI-enhanced digital monitoring for Tier 3 offenders.Modernizes the Indiana Sex Offender Registry for the digital age.
Resource EfficiencyReallocates $4M from DCS admin to the front lines.Supported by Indiana's Project Awaken (2025).

3. Your Testimony Script (The "3-Minute Pitch")

If Rep. McNamara grants a hearing, you will need to fill out an Appearance Form at the Statehouse. Here is your script:

"Madam Chair and Members of the Committee,

My name is [Your Name], and I represent the Unity Party. I stand before you today because in Indiana, justice for our children currently has an expiration date—but trauma does not.

Statutes of limitations were designed for a time when evidence was fleeting. Today, with the processing of rape kit backlogs and the power of DNA, evidence is permanent. The Indiana Shield Act ensures our laws reflect this reality.

By removing the statute of limitations for Level 1 and 2 felonies, we tell predators that they will never be 'safe' from the consequences of their actions. By integrating AI into our IDOC monitoring, we use 21st-century tools to solve an age-old crisis.

This isn't a partisan issue; it’s a unity issue. I urge this committee to give the Indiana Shield Act a 'Do Pass' recommendation to ensure that no child’s cry for justice is ever silenced by a calendar. Thank you."

Action Checklist for Tomorrow:

  1. Email the Digest and Fact Sheet to H76@iga.in.gov.

  2. Check the House Committee Schedule daily.

  3. Prepare 5 copies of the Fact Sheet to hand to the committee clerk when you arrive to testify.

How Did I Become Me?

I didn’t wake up one day fully formed. I became myself through a thousand tiny moments—some loud, some quiet, some I didn’t even notice until years later. But the very first moment that shaped me wasn’t mine alone—it was shared. I came into this world with Lonnie, my identical twin. We were a matched set from the start, but our beginning was anything but simple. We faced twin-to-twin transfusion syndrome before anyone had a name for it, let alone a treatment. There was no protocol, no textbook solution—just a local doctor with steady hands and a gut instinct that saved our lives. His skill, not science, gave us a chance. That moment—before memory, before breath—etched something deep into me: a sense of survival, of gratitude, and of connection that runs soul-deep. Growing up with Lonnie wasn’t just having a ...

The Cacopathy of time is the wind in our sails to a future location causing Cacophony of ideas.

  Why is hate hate, and racism racism? Male creates female, and right is left along the way? Up is still down down under, and death is life after you live. The world of self is a world of others, and others are selves alone. Destruction is construction after you clear the lot. And babies are the future, yet to begin. One can go east until one is in the west. One goes up until he comes down.  Killing babies and destroying your neighbor's house is not sound but Cacopathy. Going back is not sound.  Never fear change, change fears you. You are a creator, and you create. Going around and around will make you dizzy, unless you're a ballerina. Worship women, for they create your tomorrow. A woman who cheats is lost and not yet found. A hungry child will tell you so. If you owe a bill to a bill collector, give him the old washing machine. Not your wife or life or child or wisdom. After a while, they will be washing your clothes. The lord knows your wife needs a break. And for goo...
