Indiana Chief Justice Loretta H. Rush will deliver her 2023 State of the Judiciary Address to the Governor and Indiana General Assembly.

“Lakeshore strives to keep our audiences informed on matters that affect the Region and the state of Indiana because access to this information is so often lacking in the Chicagoland media landscape,” Lakeshore Public Media’s Vice President of Development, Carl Kurek, said. “We have the opportunity and duty to educate viewers and listeners as to what is going on with the present state and future of our government, what the focuses are of Hoosier leaders, and how they intend to serve Hoosiers. We encourage our audience to tune-in to learn more of about the state of our state.”
