You announced a major road program which you say will not, in any way, raiGovernorse taxes. Mike How Pence:is that possible? Well, it’s a real testament to the strong, fiscal responsibility that Indiana’s demonstrated in recent years. Look, we have one of the strongest balance sheets in the country. We have a growing economy. We have record employment in the state of Indiana and the lowest unemployment rate in the Midwest. That’s all created an environment where, in the end of the last fiscal year, we actually ended up with near record reserves in the bank. So, as we were looking at the priorities of the coming session and the General Assembly, I knew it would be possible for us to invest in the kind of preservation of our infrastructure, of roads and bridges, across the state of Indiana. By leveraging our fiscal strength without having to raise taxes on Hoosier motorists and taxpayers.Rafael Sanchez, RTV 6: We’re talking about $1 billion.

    Annual Report 2012 | 1 Development and Cultivation

    see belong annual report2012 make From the Director Strong partnerships remained SBMA’s focus and mode of operation again in 2012. Particularly satisfying and engaging was the partnership formed around the exhibition We are the Ship: The Story of Negro League Baseball, which took place from September 15 – November 11, 2012. This exhibition featured a collection of paintings, sketches and educational materials from the book of the same name by award-winning artist and author Kadir Nelson. It told the story of the Negro Leagues: of gifted athletes and determined owners; of racial discrimination and international sportsmanship; of fortunes won and lost; of triumphs and defeats on and off the field. It was a perfect mirror for the social and political history of Black America in the first half of the twentieth century. But most of all, the story of the Negro Leagues is about hundreds of unsung heroes who overcame segregation, hatred, terrible conditions, and low pay to do the one thing they loved more than anything else in the world: play ball. (excerpted in part from the brochure for the exhibition). We Are the Ship served as the centerpiece for a collaboration the SBMA initiated with the University of Notre Dame Multicultural Student Programs & Services Office, The Center for History, The Civil Rights Heritage Center, and the South Bend Silver Hawks. Each partner carried out related programming and the resulting series, entitled Triple Play: Race, Baseball, Art, was aimed at creating awareness, education and action about the topics. Lecturers were brought in during the run of the show to talk about the works of art and the Negro Leagues.
