Braun Declines Anti-Immigration Rally | Indianapolis News

Indiana Governor Mike Braun is pulling out of an anti-immigration rally scheduled for August 1st, declining to record a video message despite organizers’ requests — though his lieutenant governor will still appear. The event, organized by Save Heritage Indiana, a group labeled an anti-immigrant hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center, seeks to halt mass migration and calls for deporting undocumented immigrants. The rally’s secrecy and threats against organizers have raised alarms, especially as Fishers — home to over 11% foreign-born residents — braces for backlash. A counterprotest and vigil honoring lives lost to immigration enforcement are set for the same day, turning the event into a flashpoint for national debate.
