While Indiana’s new property tax plan will save most homeowners money, school districts are going to miss out on millions. Some schools may have to share their shrinking revenue with charter schools.  

Gov. Mike Braun unveiled a new health initiative which makes several significant changes to Indiana’s Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, or SNAP.

Gov. Mike Braun said he’ll sign the bill. He called it “historic” property tax relief that makes the system “fairer, more transparent, and easier to understand.”

The order requires the IDOC to review factors that contribute to challenges related to finding stable housing and employment — and to work with community partners to provide support for people deemed as “high risk" of being homeless.

Lawmakers have sent Braun 38 bills thus far, and he has signed all of them.

Indiana leaders are welcoming an order from President Donald Trump intended to close the U.S. Department of Education, saying it will give the state more control over education and greater flexibility to spend federal funds.

Gov. Mike Braun’s family home in Jasper will be getting at least $118,000 in various security improvements, paid for by the Indiana Department of Administration.

Braun continues to stress that he wants broad tax relief, despite how much it’s expected to cost local governments and schools.

Gov. Mike Braun said he’ll veto major property tax reform legislation if it doesn’t “improve” as the session continues.

The program was created to fill gaps in healthcare, skilled trades, manufacturing, education, computer science and other industries. It’s specifically for adults who graduated high school but have no college degree.
