Northeast Indiana Now: November 19, 2025

Fort Wayne City Council President Russ Jehl is stepping aside, effective immediately.

Several dozen people gathered at the Indiana Statehouse on Tuesday, joined by Lieutenant Governor Micah Beckwith and Secretary of State Diego Morales, to urge lawmakers to pass new congressional maps.

Indiana Senators voted to return for the 2026 legislative session in January, rejecting calls from Governor Mike Braun to meet next month to redraw new congressional maps to favor Republicans.
