Congressman Rudy Yakym, who has represented Indiana’s 2nd District in the U.S. Congress since 2022, recently posted a series of statements on his official social media account addressing constituent services, unemployment benefits policy, and antisemitism.

That’s why I led a bipartisan resolution to condemn the phrase ‘Globalize the Intifada.’ We must keep exposing and confronting hate like this because it has no place in America.”
Yakym was born in 1984 and currently resides in Granger at age 39. He graduated from Indiana University South Bend with associate’s and bachelor’s degrees earned in 2009 and 2011 respectively.
