Indiana Democrats won local, state and federal offices on a platform of affordability, anti-corruption and populism. Stock market investors seem to think they are going to bring down the hammer on data centers. If the Republicans who survived are smart, they will join Democrats. Democrats would be wise to avoid the low-hanging fruit, though, which is to eliminate state and local tax breaks for data centers. That would not stop Big Tech, and it might leave local governments with fewer benefits than they could have negotiated because of our convoluted tax system. The state’s sales and use tax exemptions originated from bipartisan legislation passed in 2019, which also authorized local governments to give personal property tax breaks to data centers. The goal was to compete with other states, such as Illinois, that were passing similar legislation in a race to the bottom to attract development. Indiana's economic development regime has been a failure in many respects, but the tax incentives in this case had an unexpected benefit. Better planning could make those incentives incredibly valuable to taxpayers. Tax breaks give rural communities leverage The state has a huge budget surplus and wastes its money on plenty of things .

(The Center Square) – After breaking a 14-years supermajority in the Indiana House on Election Day, Democrats want to tackle taxes and affordability. Democrats flipped 16 Indiana House seats in last week’s election, and now the 46-seat Democratic minority elected leaders have priorities for the new year. “My responsibility to the taxpayers is not only to listen to them, but to make life easier and more affordable for them,” said Rep. Cherrish Pryor, D-Indianapolis, who was reelected minority floor leader. Democratic leadership wants to reform property taxes and eliminate the sales tax on utility bills for private individuals, among other affordability issues. “Data centers don’t pay sales tax on utility bills while regular taxpayers are having to pay that sales tax,” Pryor told The Center Square. “The legislature has given tax breaks to businesses, but we have not helped homeowners, renters, and local governments – that includes schools.” “I don’t believe many residents saw a significant enough break that they felt we did anything for their property taxes,” Rep. Phil GiaQuinta, D-Ft. Wayne, who was reelected minority leader, told The Center Square. The coming year will require legislature to pass a budget, which happens every other year. “Property taxes are
