In his communications, Carson outlined his stance on education, social security, and upcoming events.

On April 14, 2025, Carson voiced support for educators in Indiana, saying, "I stand with Hoosier teachers. Thousands are gathering at the statehouse today. Indiana has a growing teacher shortage, and threats to public school funding and President Trump’s dismantling of the Department of Education will only make it worse. We can’t cut corners when it". Carson highlighted concerns over teacher shortages and potential reductions in public school funding.

On April 15, 2025, Carson addressed issues affecting seniors and public resources. He stated, "DOGE and MAGA are creating chaos and confusion, and it's hurting Indy seniors.

Carson emphasized his commitment to defending social security access amid concerns about property sales.

Later that day, Carson announced an educational event, inviting constituents to partake in a digital session. He posted, "Stop by our free webinar tomorrow night, 4/16, at 6pm EDT.
