January 27, 2017
This week on Indiana Lawmakers, tackling one of the biggest priorities before legislators, educators and even the governor: workforce development.

Commissioner Steve Braun of Indiana Workforce Development; Rep. Holli Sullivan, R - Evansville; Dr. Chuck Johnson, president of Vincennes University; and Claudia Cummings, vice president of workforce and education for Conexus Indiana join host Jon Schwantes for the discussion.
