INDIANAPOLIS - Indiana Governor Mike Braun today renewed Indiana’s statewide energy emergency and extended his suspension of the state’s Gasoline Use Tax and Gasoline Excise Tax through November 4, continuing uninterrupted relief for Hoosiers from high gas prices.
The renewed declaration will take effect October 6, following the expiration of the current energy emergency. It will keep both state gas taxes suspended without interruption through November 4 in all 92 counties.
Governor Braun first suspended the Gasoline Use Tax in April and expanded the relief in May to include the Gasoline Excise Tax. His continued action to suspend the gas taxes have provided Hoosier families additional breathing room to make ends meet while protecting funding for state and local infrastructure projects.
The governor has also waived special fuel restrictions for dyed diesel, which delivers more relief for farmers across the state. Farmers will now be able to use dyed diesel for any farm related activities. This is a direct response to concerns raised by the farming community and will help ease that burden.
“Affordability is my top priority, and my gas tax suspensions have delivered immediate tax relief and some of the cheapest gas in America for Hoosier families. I'm delivering relief for Hoosier farmers by lifting special fuel restrictions to help ease the burden and providing relief from high gas prices to keep more money in Hoosiers’ pockets and make life more affordable.” — Governor Mike Braun
