Braun Delivers on Promise to Keep Local Governments Whole During Gas Tax Holiday<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Indianapolis, Indiana (August 18, 2026) \u2014 Indiana counties, cities and towns will receive gas tax reimbursements after the State Board of Finance today unanimously approved the reimbursements, delivering on Governor Mike Braun\u2019s promise to provide Hoosiers historic relief at the pump without taking funding away from local communities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI made a commitment that we would provide gas tax relief to Hoosiers without leaving our local communities to foot the bill,\u201d said Gov. Braun. \u201cI\u2019m grateful to the Board of Finance for their partnership in once again helping us keep that promise. Right now, local leaders across Indiana are focused on cleaning up from historic storms, repairing damaged infrastructure and helping their neighbors recover, and they can continue to direct their efforts there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The approval comes at an important time as communities across Indiana are recovering from last week\u2019s historic severe weather and flooding. Gov. Braun is using every available tool to help Hoosiers and local governments recover.<\/p>\n<p>The State Board of Finance unanimously approved $130,450,219.60 in reimbursements for the period of June 1 through June 30, following its unanimous approval last month of reimbursements for April and May. The Indiana State Comptroller\u2019s Office will distribute $43,805,267.02 to counties, cities and towns over the next week.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/in\/zoeller_greg.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Indiana Attorney General Greg Zoeller.
