Today: We continue with our series of conversations with northwest Indiana state lawmakers with state Representative Pat Boy, a Democrat who represents House District 9. Boy defeated Republican Dan Granquist in the November general election for the chance to represent voters in her Michigan City area. Pat talks about her experiences as a new state legislator, the measures she sponsored or co-sponsored this General Assembly session and her thoughts on the upcoming vote on a new state budget.
We also have two Welcome Project conversations: one with a man who grew up in Aetna and another with a Gary school security officer.
