State budget, Lower Cascades road, solar eclipse | Indiana Newsdesk

Coming up on  Indiana Newsdesk:

Indiana lawmakers are wrapping up the 2023 session with a new state budget for the next two years. And not everyone is happy. Ahead, we’ll look at some of the new laws going in the books.

Bloomington officials are facing pushback from residents about plans to close a stretch of road through Lower Cascades Park on the city’s north side. The mayor hopes to deliver final plans on the project to city council by the end of the year.

And we sit down with former Bloomington council woman Charlotte Zietlow, whose new book explores the democratic party’s rise to power in the 1971 election.

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