Gov. Braun Continues to Deliver on Promise to Keep Local Governments Whole During Gas Tax Holiday
Indianapolis, Indiana (September 15, 2026) — Indiana counties, cities and towns will once again receive gas tax reimbursements after the State Board of Finance today unanimously approved the reimbursements, continuing to deliver on Governor Mike Braun’s promise to provide Hoosiers historic relief at the pump without taking funding away from local communities.
“Indiana has enjoyed the lowest gas prices in the country all summer while continuing to make local communities whole, protecting local roads and infrastructure,” said Gov. Braun. “I want to thank the Board of Finance for their partnership in once again helping us keep that promise.”
The State Board of Finance unanimously approved $138,903,493.28 in reimbursements for the period of July 1 through July 31, following its unanimous approval last month of reimbursements for April and May. The Indiana State Comptroller’s Office will distribute $46,192,429.96 to counties, cities and towns over the next week.
“The Comptroller’s Office is committed to restoring funds to our local government partners and is prioritizing this distribution so critical operations can continue at the local level.” – Comptroller Elise Nieshalla
“Indiana’s continued extension of the Gas Tax holiday is a reminder of what good fiscal stewardship and sound economic policies can allow us to do,” said Daniel Elliott, Indiana State Treasurer. “I commend Governor Braun for continuing his leadership on this issue and ensuring that Hoosiers have affordable fuel prices.”
“The Board takes seriously its role in supervising the fiscal affairs of the state and remains steadfast in its commitment to responsible fiscal stewardship,” said State Budget Director Chad Ranney. “Continuing the exercise of transferring funds to make the locals whole during the gas tax holiday is a top priority for the State Board of Finance.”
