Indiana’s Surplus Must Serve Hoosiers | Indianapolis News

Indiana’s state government just hit a major financial milestone—surpassing its budget by over a billion dollars—with nearly $187 million flowing back into the General Fund, including $98 million for K-12 schools. State Rep. Gregory Porter is calling on lawmakers to use this windfall to tackle real problems: stagnant wages, crushing medical debt, and underfunded schools. He argues that a strong treasury shouldn’t mean struggling citizens, and with this surplus, Indiana has a golden chance to reverse past cuts and make life more affordable for Hoosiers.
