INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (ADAMS) – The Indiana Senate is advancing a bill that could mean the end of the state’s COVID-19 public health emergency declaration.

These include the continuation of enhanced federal matching funds for Medicaid, the continuation of the enhanced benefit for those receiving federal food assistance and extending the ability to efficiently vaccinate five to 11-year-olds.
