Issues in the Statehouse

This week on Noon Edition, we discuss current issues in the statehouse such as the Democratic walkout, the budget, and business moving through the Senate.

The House Democrats have been in Illinois for a month now. With no end to the boycott in sight, the Indiana Senate has been working with House Republicans on the state's budget.

The legislature is legally required to pass a budget by midnight of the last day of session, April 19th.

Joining us in studio, IU Political Science Professor Margie Hersey, Representative Terri Austin of Anderson and Rep. Milo Smith of Columbus to discuss these and other issues facing lawmakers.

Noon Edition airs Friday at 12:06.
