Educator, ACTIVIST, ADVOCATE, Community leader,
Progressive Democrat

A resident of Indianapolis for 34 years, Clif Marsiglio isn’t running to climb a political ladder—he’s running to build a system that actually works for the people.

For decades, Clif has turned data into accountability and community frustration into organized action. As an educator and researcher, he specializes in fixing broken systems and strengthening what works. On the Near Eastside, he is known for asking the hard questions and refusing to accept “that’s just how it is” as an answer.

Clif believes real progress doesn’t come from polite speeches; it comes from clear priorities and the courage to act. As a Progressive Democrat, he expects more from our government because Hoosiers deserve more. He offers honest leadership, transparent plans, and the professional experience to follow through.

Issues & Priorities

PUBLIC HEALTH AND COMMUNITY CARE

  • Restore healthcare access for those impacted by Indiana’s Medicaid review to ensure no neighbor is left behind.
  • Expand mental health and substance use treatment through proven, science-based harm reduction strategies.
  • Invest in civilian-led crisis response so people in crisis are connected to care instead of a jail cell.

PUBLIC EDUCATION AND OPPORTUNITY

  • Fully fund neighborhood public schools from early childhood through high school graduation.
  • Protect public resources by opposing the expansion of private school vouchers that divert funding from our schools.

HOUSING AND COST-OF-LIVING STABILITY

  • Expand affordable housing inventory to ensure quality, attainable homes for local families.
  • Protect renters by implementing safeguards for housing stability and fair treatment.
  • Address rising housing and utility costs so families can afford to stay in the communities they call home.

FAIR ECONOMY AND RESPONSIBLE DEVELOPMENT

  • End unchecked corporate tax breaks, including subsidies for data centers that strain our local water and power resources.
  • Support worker rights by ensuring public investments prioritize good wages, safe workplaces, and collective bargaining.
  • Ensure economic growth delivers tangible benefits to local neighborhoods rather than just corporate balance sheets.

DONATE

Movements don't work on vibes alone. They work when they’re funded by grassroots supporters, not charter school money or corporate checkbooks. If you believe public dollars should serve the public, chip in.
