The 2022 National Defense Authorization Act required the Biden administration to make its report on the 2019 Wuhan World Military Games “publicly available on an internet website in a searchable format” by the summer of 2022. Though the Biden administration transmitted copies of the two-page report to the House and Senate Armed Services Committees in December 2022, it didn’t see the light of day until sometime in late March when the Trump administration quietly uploaded it to a Defense Department website.

Hour 3: Indiana’s Hidden Tax Hike and Federal Overreach

SB1 in Indiana is revealed as a bait-and-switch income tax hike set to begin in 2028. We break down the new structure and what it means for Hoosiers. Also, KFC launches bizarre toothpaste, a federal judge shuts down Arkansas’ Digital ID law, and Trump plans a patriotic parade that media tries to spin into outrage.

Indiana’s SB1 is actually a bait and switch tax hike

New LIT Structure: This bill increases, beginning in 2028, the maximum local income tax (LIT) expenditure
rate for all counties to 2.9%. It authorizes a city or town to impose a municipal LIT rate beginning in 2028
not to exceed 1.2%. It provides that within a county’s total expenditure rate, the county may adopt:
(1) up to a 1.2% rate for county general purpose revenue;
(2) up to a 0.4% rate for fire protection and emergency medical services;
(3) up to a 0.2% rate for nonmunicipal civil taxing unit general purpose revenue; and
(4) up to 1.2% for certain cities and towns that are not eligible to adopt a municipal LIT rate.

(Revised) New LIT Structure: Effective CY 2028, the bill establishes a new rate structure and distribution
formula for LIT expenditure rate revenue for civil taxing units that is based on the following:
(1) up to a 1.2% rate for county general purpose revenue;
(2) up to a 0.4% rate for fire protection and emergency medical services;
(3) up to a 0.2% rate for nonmunicipal civil taxing unit general purpose revenue; and
(4) up to a 1.2% rate for certain cities and towns that are not eligible to adopt a municipal LIT rate.
Overall, the maximum LIT expenditure rate for all counties is increased to 2.9%. It also authorizes a city or
town with a population of 3,500 or more to impose a municipal LIT rate beginning in 2028 not to exceed
1.2%. The municipal LIT rate forthese eligible municipalities would only be imposed on income earners who
live in the particular municipality that is imposing the rate.
