A Conversation With State Rep. Hal Slager

State Representative Hal Slager (R-Schererville) joined us on "Regionally Speaking" on Monday to talk about the just-completed 2017 General Assembly session and the big issues that lawmakers addressed. 

He also talks about the bills he introduced and supported that affect northwest Indiana residents and businesses -- including road and bridge improvements, and his bill that sets up the mechanism to support the South Shore Line's "double tracking" between Gary and Michigan City and the proposed "West Lake Corridor" project. 

Rep. Slager also brought up one of his personal concerns that, he hopes, might be discussed in future Indiana Legislature sessions.

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.
