INDIANAPOLIS -- Indiana Gov. Mike Braun announced he's extending the gas tax holiday for another month, extending it until Oct. 6.

The suspension includes Indiana’s Gasoline Usage Tax and Gasoline Excise Tax.

“Affordability is my top priority, and my gas tax suspensions are delivering the cheapest gas in America for Hoosiers. I’m keeping those savings going for Hoosier families. My recommended budget will tap our reserves to keep state and local infrastructure projects fully funded," said Braun.

Braun stated he remains committed to making local units of government whole and using current reserves to allow the Indiana Department of Transportation highway fund to continue all fiscal year 2027 projects and maintenance uninterrupted

This comes after Braun reached an agreement with House and Senate fiscal leadership to prioritize the use of funds available from the reserve balance during the 2027 budget session to replace lost revenue.

The governor's office reports the current reserve balance is on track to be over $5 billion.

Braun will reevaluate in 30 days to decide if another pause is needed.
