Indiana’s Bold New Laws Take Effect

Indiana’s July 1st law blitz brings sweeping changes: kids now need parental consent to use social media, schools ban phones during the day, and camping on state land becomes a misdemeanor. New protections empower parents over kids’ online content and beef up oversight in child fatality cases. Immigration enforcement tightens as local governments must cooperate with detainers and employers face stricter rules for hiring undocumented workers. Farmers and small businesses breathe easier with reduced regulations. SNAP restrictions now exclude sugary drinks and candy, while a new law shields animal rescuers who break into hot cars—and stiffens penalties for animal cruelty. Doxing is now a crime, and the Indiana National Guard gains authority to form its own military police force for state duties. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
