Last night, the Indiana Senate snuck an amendment into the abortion ban, taking away county prosecutors’ discretion. This gives the Indiana Attorney General the power to pick and choose prosecutorial policies — when oversight should come, first and foremost, from voters.

.@SenEddieMelton offers a religious exemption for SB 1, which is based on a narrow Christian view of “life at conception.” ICYMI: Republicans included a religious exemption in their 2021 vaccine bill. No person’s religious beliefs should supersede others’. The amendment fails.

New legislation will reportedly be proposed Monday to legalize marijuana at the federal level, along with apply a 3.75% tax on sales. We should immediately legalize marijuana and release every person in prison for non-violent marijuana crimes. Enough is enough. It’s a plant.

Tough Census release for Indiana. The orange counties lost population from 2010 to 2020. More than half the state’s geography is in decline.

Bob Jenkins considered himself an Indianapolis 500 fan who got lucky. Indianapolis Motor Speedway fans consider themselves lucky to have Bob's voice ringing through the grandstands for decades. While his voice on race day will be missed, his legacy at IMS will last forever.

52 summers ago, I was a gangly 14-year-old in Europe for the first time. I drank Solo orange pop, ate pølser wieners, and, for the first time, let travel wallop my ethnocentrism. Looking back on your own perspective-broadening travels, what moment sticks out the most to you?
