Immigration Vigil, Immigration Support Event, Audiochuck grant for IYG, Homelessness criminalization bill passes, Social media ban bill change, Indy Car street race

from WFYI News Now

A vigil last Friday on the east side of Indianapolis remembered those lost under the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. Several protests against ICE and immigration enforcement were organized over the weekend in Indianapolis. The Indianapolis-based media company Audiochuck this week announced they're giving significant financial support to local LGBTQ+ youth. For a second year in a row, lawmakers at the Indiana Statehouse are advancing a bill that would criminalize homelessness. Teenagers in Indiana won’t have to worry about not having access to Instagram or TikTok, at least for now. An IndyCar street race will be one of the White House’s events to celebrate the 250 anniversary of the Declaration of Independence.
