“I love Indianapolis. Indianapolis has been my home for my entire adult life. It's a place that I care about as a location, but I care more about its people and their future,” Hogsett said. During his term, Hogsett created a $150 million violence reduction plan, which gave more funding to police, crime-fighting technology and grassroots organizations.
In the 2024 proposed budget, Hogsett also increased IMPD’s budget to $323 million. First-year IMPD recruit wages would increase to $72,000, along with a 3% overall raise for veteran IMPD officers. Hogsett said the state’s road funding formula is not equitable when it comes to the money Indianapolis receives. Right now, Indianapolis receives the least dollars per capita from the state compared to the 91 other counties.
Shreve believes there are far too many guns in the hands of people who should not legally possess one. That is why Shreve wants to work with the General Assembly to change state law within Indianapolis.
