Public Art Project in Broad Ripple, Indiana School Safety Grant Program Receives Funding, Indianapolis International Airport Had A Busy Month, Push For Redistricting In Indiana

The state of Indiana will deliver more than 27 million dollars to nearly 500 schools this year through its school safety grant program. July saw the largest number of passengers flying out of Indy ever recorded at the airport. Hundreds rallied at the Indiana Statehouse last month against a push to redraw congressional districts — while many Republican lawmakers were in Washington, meeting with the Trump administration about the same plan.
