A Major Expansion for Online Gambling
January 31, 2025
A major expansion of the gambling industry would fully legalize online gambling and lottery. Proposed legislation would move municipal elections to presidential election years, but critics say that may bury local candidates. Governor Mike Braun directs all state law enforcement agencies to comply with Trump’s deportation efforts, though state law already requires this. Host Brandon Smith is joined by Republican Mike O’Brien, Democrat Elise Shrock, Niki Kelly of the Indiana Capital Chronicle, and Jon Schwantes of Indiana Lawmakers to debate and discuss this week’s top stories.
