Regionally Speaking, Monday, February 3, 2020

Scott Costello campaign website

Today:  We talk to another candidate for the First District Congressional seat held by Pete Visclosky.  Highland resident Scott Costello's name is at the top of the Democratic Party primary election ballot. He considers himself a progressive, and he talks about many of the issues in his campaign.    We also find out about the Human Trafficking Awareness Month campaign just completed from Indiana State Police public information officer Sgt. John Perrine.  And Lakeshore Public Radio's Sharon Jackson has a conversation with LaPorte County Council president Randy Novak about the $1 million state performance-based grant to support the connection of the railroad spurs inside Kingsbury Industrial Park wih the CSX and CN railroads. "America Amplified Election 2020" reporter Andrea Tudhope has an immigration-related feature on a community in Iowa where at least one-half of its residents are immigrants.  The Iowa Caucusus are being held tonight.

Chris Nolte produces and hosts “Regionally Speaking” aired weekdays from noon to 1:00 p.m. He's also the temporary local "Morning Edition" host.
