An Indiana state representative called Governor Mike Braun “racist” for not sending $2.5 million per year to a tiny black college with an operating budget of only $6.6 million.
“The active intervention to end or attack anything in the budget that gives state dollars to people of color is sickening. I won’t mince my words: It’s racist,” Rep. Greg Porter, D-Indianapolis, stated in a news release.
“Black Hoosiers and other minorities pay taxes, so we deserve to benefit from the state budget as much as our white counterparts,” Porter (pictured, left) stated.
