The Regional Development Bill
Indiana proposes tax credit for regional development projects
Regional development tax credit.
Mixed: some good, some bad ·
The bill would let the state give tax credits to businesses that invest in regional development, lowering their taxes if they qualify.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
If passed, companies could pay less taxes when they build or expand in certain areas, which could boost jobs but also reduce state revenue for services.
