Indiana Gov. Mike Braun has extended the suspension of the state’s gas usage and excise taxes for another month. The initial emergency declaration was made in April, when gas prices were quickly climbing across the country.
Extension Details
Braun said Indiana’s suspension of the gas tax will last for an additional 30 days, which will be through the end of July. According to data from AAA, the average price of a regular gallon of gas in Indiana is $3.12 as of Thursday, lower than Ohio’s average of $3.70 and Kentucky’s $3.46.
“Affordability is my top priority. I am once again extending these gas tax savings to make life more affordable for Hoosier families. Hoosiers will be able to celebrate 250 years of American independence this Fourth of July with the cheapest gas in America,” Braun said.
