Rokita Behind the Counter at Casey's General Store in Brownsburg, IN

Statement

Date: June 29, 2015
Location: Washington, DC

This morning, Rep. Todd Rokita (IN-04) worked behind the counter at Casey's General Store in Brownsburg to better understand the jobs that keep Indiana running. Rep. Rokita experienced first-hand what it is like as a clerk at Casey's, which also gave him the opportunity to listen to customers passing through.

After the event, Rep. Rokita issued the following statement:

"As I travel across Indiana, I am reminded of the hard work Hoosiers put in every day to make a better life for themselves and their families. In order to build a better life, one must start somewhere. I am grateful for businesses like Casey's, which provide work opportunities for those new to the workforce, and those who are just trying to make ends meet.

"Hoosiers are known for their strong work ethic, which I have experienced time and time again. I look forward to more opportunities to step into the shoes of Indiana's workers. These experiences not only grow my appreciation for hard work, but also inform and motivate my fight for commonsense solutions I can take back to Washington."
