Lawmakers couldn’t agree earlier this week on how to proceed in a special session to address limiting vaccine mandates in private businesses.
Because of that, Governor Eric Holcomb decided to extend the state’s COVID emergency order into the new year.
While attending the annual Mozel Sanders Foundation Thanksgiving Day event, Holcomb stressed that the order is the reason Indiana has been able to keep the virus of adversely affecting thousands of Hoosiers and getting many children ages 5-to-11 vaccinated.
He says he looks forward to discussing ending the order with state lawmakers during the legislative session in January.
