Rep. Ed DeLaney, of Indianapolis, outlined a new fiscal analysis on school funding.

Indiana's 2025 fiscal year began on a positive note, about $30 million ahead of the budget plan.

Indiana ended its fiscal year with a $421 million surplus, by far the lowest margin in the post-pandemic era — an era when, up to now, the state had been awash in federal pandemic funding.

Indiana is about $42 million ahead of where the state budget expected its revenues to be through 11 months of the 2024 fiscal year.

Indiana's 2024 legislation session is kicking off next week and is expected to end mid-March.

The state revealed an error Tuesday in the estimates lawmakers used to write the budget earlier this year.

A legislative study committee recommendation adopted Tuesday would see a blend of cost-of-living adjustments, or COLAs, and extra monthly payments to increase pension benefits for public retirees.

There are more than 850 line items in the state budget, individual spending amounts that make up more than $44 billion in total budget spending.

Indiana’s current two-year state budget includes more than $44 billion in spending. But where does all that money come from?

Indiana finished its last fiscal year more than $2 billion ahead of the state budget plan.
