In this episode of Candidate Interview: State Rep. Cherrish Pryor, I sit down for a substantive conversation about representation, accountability, and the real-life policy decisions shaping Indiana House District 94 and communities across Indianapolis. This discussion dives deep into the issues Hoosiers are facing right now, including affordability, rising utility rates, childcare costs, housing instability, public safety, healthcare access, education funding, worker protections, and civil rights.

I explore how State Rep. Pryor approaches the growing cost of living crisis, from holding utility companies accountable to advocating for affordable daycare solutions that support working families. We discuss the importance of supporting immigrant-owned small businesses in areas like the International Marketplace, and what economic fairness looks like in a diverse district.

Housing affordability and property tax concerns take center stage, along with conversations about preventing displacement and strengthening neighborhoods. We also break down the balance between public safety and mental health services, the fight to raise Indiana’s minimum wage, the role of unions, and why civil rights protections remain critical in today’s political climate.

The conversation expands into environmental quality, infrastructure investment, Medicaid expansion, mental healthcare access, and public education accountability, connecting local policy to broader historical and systemic challenges. For viewers who want to understand why society functions the way it does—and how state-level decisions influence everyday life— this interview provides context, clarity, and thoughtful debate.
