Support the Indiana House Republican plan to invest our state tax surplus on schools and roads, instead of Governor Pence's plan to reduce state income taxes by 10% (which is actually 0.34%--one third of one percent of income).
Why is this important?
Governor Pence proposes a 10% state income tax reduction to dole out our state tax surplus. This would only have a small impact on the state economy and the pockets of the average Hoosier (in most cases, $50-250). Those funds would be much better spent on education, which suffered serious loss of revenue as a result of property tax caps enacted under Governor Daniels. Our roads are also in poor condition. I applaud the Indiana House Republicans to have the courage to want to support education and our infrastructure instead of political pandering.
