I appreciate the Governor talking about the affordability issue that many, many Hoosiers are facing right now. However, affordability issues are being felt across all income and age brackets. This change will shift the tax burden required to provide services in our city and state to young families. If workforce attraction is one of our state’s biggest issues, this policy will work in stark contrast to that effort.
Our party and leaders need to get serious about policy and stop governing to misleading talking points to gain political headlines. Let’s get serious, come the table with REAL solutions for ALL. That’s how we win, both at home and the ballot box.
Indiana Gov. Mike Braun wants to eliminate property taxes for seniors and those who have paid off their mortgage.
This is the same state government that removed tax relief for first time homeowners in a property tax bill last year because it would have allegedly harmed local schools.
Yet under this proposal, Braun would pay zero dollars in property taxes on his huge, nearly 10,000 square foot home with hundreds of thousands of dollars of taxpayer-funded improvements.
The hypocrisy & hatred of young adults here is insane.
It’s incredibly anti-family.
