Indianapolis Business Journal

The can’t miss package this week is IBJ’s 28th annual edition of Forty under 40, featuring the young leaders making names for themselves in central Indiana. From Stacy Atkinson, chancellor of the Richmond campus of Ivy Tech Community College, to Muhammad Yasin, executive vice president of marketing for software firm Perq, the Class of 2020 is especially strong and diverse. Also in this week’s paper, Samm Quinn discusses how the experience of running for Indianapolis mayor has informed the legislative priorities of state Sen. Jim Merritt. He’s filed bills in the current legislative session concerning food deserts and landlord-tenant relationship, and in next year's budget-writing session he plans to tackle roads and crime. And John Russell explores the future of Medicaid in Indiana now that the Trump administration has announced plans to allow states to add eligibility requirements, benefit changes and drug-coverage limits.
