Homebound Hoosiers Vaccination, Private School Vouchers | Indiana Newsdesk

Right now on  Indiana Newsdesk:

A decision to lower the state’s age requirement to receive the COVID-19 vaccine has been pushed back because of winter storms this week. Ahead, more on the vaccine and plans to deliver it to homebound Hoosiers.

Legislation that would expand the eligibility of state-funded private school vouchers for families passed out of the House this week. But former state superintendents argue the bill would divert funds from public education.

And, we visit an airport in Seymour that was a training ground for the history-making Tuskegee Airmen during World War Two.

Those stories and the latest news headlines from across the state, Friday at 6 on  Indiana Newsdesk.
