Mayoral forum, jumping worm, Bigfoot | Indiana Newsdesk

By Joe Hren

Posted March 24, 2023

Coming up on Indiana Newsdesk:

3 Democrats are running for Bloomington mayor in the primary election. One of the main things they’ll have to address is the controversial annexation plan and they all have different ideas on the best path forward.

A bill that would require teachers to notify parents if students request to be called by a different name, pronoun or title that is “inconsistent with their sex assigned at birth” is advancing at the statehouse. Ahead the latest on what’s been dubbed the Don’t Say Gay bill and updates on other key pieces of legislation.

Plus, not all worms are good for your soil… the jumping worm is invading some Indiana gardens. What to do to prevent the pest and keep from spreading it.

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