INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana’s Republican leaders are calling for a short 2024 session focused on “fine-tuning” policy.

The consistent top priority across the statehouse and political aisle this year is improving literacy and education outcomes following significant setbacks from the pandemic. The session beginning Jan. 8 must adjourn by March 14.
