Who is Andy Ruff?

Andy Ruff is a lifetime Hoosier and strong progressive leader. He served on the Bloomington city council for twenty years as a voice for ordinary Hoosiers. One of his proudest accomplishments is that he developed Indiana’s first Living Wage Ordinance in 2005, which effectively raised the minimum wage for many workers in Bloomington from $7.25 to $10.00. Andy has the strongest record of all the candidates running for Congress in the 9th District.

Who is Andy running against?

Trey Hollingsworth — a multimillionaire from Tennessee who bought a mansion in Southern Indiana a couple months before the primary in 2016 and has used his power as our “representative” to give him and his family huge tax breaks as well as further Trump’s policy agenda.
