Hancock County legislators provided the following statements today after Gov. Eric Holcomb announced his plan to call state lawmakers back to the Statehouse for a special session to provide inflation relief to Hoosier taxpayers:
STATEHOUSE (June 9, 2022) – "Whether at the gas pump or grocery store, many are feeling the pain of inflation and failed national policies. With a second round of automatic taxpayer refunds this year, we can help provide some direct relief to Hoosier taxpayers. I look forward to returning to the Statehouse and giving Hoosiers more of their money back," said State Rep. Bob Cherry (R-Greenfield), vice chair of the House Ways and Means Committee.
"Despite failed Democrat policies at the federal level, our state's economy is running strong and revenue continues to outpace our expectations. Indiana's incredible fiscal health puts us in a position to help everyday Hoosiers who are struggling under the weight of record inflation and gas prices," said State Rep. Chris Jeter (R-Fishers).
