Good evening and welcome back to another episode of 'Long Story Short' where we recap Central Illinois news from Lee Enterprises journalists. Happy Fourth of July, we hope everyone is getting ready to celebrate a safe and fun weekend! We're so excited to see all of our surrounding areas preparing for a wonderful fireworks show. In this week's episode we cover a lot of topics, including new laws going into effect this month and more!
