Biography & Current Office
Background & current office
André Carson is a Democratic representative from Indiana’s 7th District. The House Historian records that he entered Congress in a March 2008 special election after serving on the Indianapolis/Marion City-County Council and working in Indiana homeland-security counterterrorism and counterintelligence.
The House Clerk currently lists Carson on Transportation and Infrastructure and the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. House historical records also place him on the Select Committee on the Strategic Competition Between the United States and the Chinese Communist Party in the 119th Congress.
Those assignments are recorded as institutional background. Claims about intelligence, transportation or national-security policy are evaluated separately only when a concrete, sourced factual proposition is available.

Recent Recorded Votes
Official recorded-vote record
TrumpsMouth keeps vote data in the public-record layer rather than treating a vote by itself as a factual controversy. Use the official chamber roll-call database to inspect current votes; claim-specific vote explanations are added only when a sourced allegation requires them.
Sponsored/Cosponsored & Curated Notable Legislation
Legislation & official congressional activity
No legislation has been promoted into the curated editorial layer for this member yet. That is intentional: TrumpsMouth does not manufacture a “notable bill” merely to fill a profile.
Use the official federal records below to review sponsored legislation, roll-call activity and current office statements. TrumpsMouth will add claim-specific vote explanations only when a particular vote or legislative action is actually part of a sourced claim.
