Solar Congress Gathers in Lafayette, Indiana Divests All Public Dollars from Chinese Companies, Homelessness Advocates Say New Shelters Aren't Enough

To help guide a movement to expand solar power in Indiana, community members, small businesses and city leaders were invited to a solar congress over the weekend. Indiana officials announced this week the state has fully divested all public dollars from Chinese companies. Community advocates say Indianapolis should invest in more housing – and wonder why it can’t model efforts that similar cities have used to reduce chronic homelessness.
