With public camping now illegal, what's next for Monroe County's unhoused population?
Indiana's <a href="https://legiscan.com/IN/text/SB0285/id/3378088/Indiana-2026-SB0285-Enrolled.pdf">Senate Enrolled Act 285</a> went into effect July 1. The new law prohibits camping, sleeping, or sheltering long-term on publicly owned land without permission.

Celebrating America's 250th birthday during a time of divide
On Saturday, the United States will celebrate its 250th birthday. In towns and communities across the nation, Americans will gather to honor the anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, when the 13 colonies announced their split from Great Britain. And over the past 250 years later, those 13 colonies grew to 50 states and the United States has become one of the world’s superpowers. Read more: <a href="https://www.ipm.org/news/2026-03-30/indiana-going-all-out-to-celebrate-americas-250th-birthday">Indiana going all out to celebrate America’s 250th birthday</a> Indiana University has a number of events scheduled this summer to commemorate the anniversary. An exhibit at the Lilly Library titled, “The Declaration of Independence: The Motives, The Moment,” looks at how the colonies reached the point of insurrection. Watch: <a href="https://www.ipm.org/show/stateofinquiry">WFIU’s The State of Inquiry Podcast: America 250</a> And, the nation’s capital is celebrating with a two-week long “Great American State Fair” on the National Mall. But like most events over the past decade or two, claims of its politization have driven a wedge into the celebration. But for some, the celebration of the country’s 250th birthday has turned into more of a wake.

Not everyone is celebrating</a> On this week’s Noon Edition, we’ll discuss America's 250th anniversary - if we're living up to the revolutionary ideals, how today's cultural wars fit in the country's history, how we’re celebrating the Fourth this year and why some may not feel like celebrating.

World Cup soccer taking America by storm
All eyes are on North America as it hosts the 23rd World Cup, an international soccer tournament held every four years. Despite pre-tournament concerns of traveling to the U.S., stadiums in the U.S., Mexico and Canada have been sold out and raucous scenes of foreigners taking over cities, such as Scottish fans in Boston, have been common. Read more: <a href="https://www.reuters.com/sports/soccer/world-cup-turnout-defies-concerns-americans-flock-spectacle-2026-06-23/">World Cup turnout defies concerns, as Americans flock for the spectacle</a> The tournament began on June 11 with group stage qualifying. That wraps up this weekend, with knockout games starting next week. This year, the tournament expanded from 32 teams to 48. The teams were divided into 12 groups of four, with the top two teams in each group and the eight best third-place teams advancing to a new round of 32. From there, the winners advance until the final two meet for the World Cup on July 19 in East Rutherford, N.J. The U.S. won its first two group games and has already qualified for the round of 32. They’ve never won three games in a World Cup before, but this year’s squad is ranked 14th in the world with high expectations on home soil.
