📢 HB 1116 – Virtual Currency Kiosks is on its way to the Governor's desk!! AARP Indiana is excited that older Hoosiers will now have protection from the fraud that is often linked to these machines.

😨The House just lowered the amount a family can save while on SNAP.
They also declined to let someone with cancer be exempt from work requirements & to require 3 months of work compliance BEFORE a person can be eligible for Medicaid.
SB 1 is cruel. Urge lawmakers to vote no.

👍 🎉 SB 197, which offers additional protection to Hoosiers who fall behind on their bills and have a debt collector pursue wage or bank account garnishment, just passed on the Senate floor. Please thank those members who voted in support!

One worry with Indiana adopting all the federal changes from OBBA is that it would further reduce the state’s tax base, said @neva_butkus of @iteptweets during a webinar hosted by @ProsperityInd & @INAssetNetwork. indianacapitalchronicle.com/…

Wow. New data available through @IUibrc's STATS INDIANA shows that Indiana's adjusted household income (ACS) is now #42 in the U.S., down from #38 just a year ago, while our median household income (CPS) is #40 in the U.S., down from #29(!!!!) in 2000.

Thanks @iteptweets for the shout-out for @ProsperityInd & @INAssetNetwork's effort to establish the nation's first Newborn Tax Credit in this past #INLegis session. SB497 passed the Senate unanimously but fell victim to a late-breaking state budget crisis.

On #TaxTuesday, we take on the assumption that state budgets are a zero-sum game. Instead, funding choices reflect policy decisions. Learn more from our blog: institute.incap.org/institut…

Medical debt can be a life sentence. I supported SB 317 to protect Hoosiers from wage garnishment & credit hits.
Now, learn your rights: IN Community Action Poverty Institute & Health Foundation of La Porte are hosting virtual workshops.

My newest Commentary for @INCapChronicle: With basic costs continuing to outpace Hoosiers’ take-home pay, it’s time to increase protections to stop the ‘scamification’ of Hoosiers.

Former U.S. Surgeon General @JeromeAdamsMD to the Morgan County Community Summit: “#MedicalDebt is the cause of 2/3 of bankruptcies in America”. His own $10,000 hospital bill has inspired him to take action.

This #TaxTuesday we look at the budget of Hoosier families, and the sizable costs that are associated with newborns. Despite costing tens of thousands, Hoosier households are only eligible for tax relief of $122. Learn more about this on our blog: institute.incap.org/institut…
