Republican tour continues in New Albany

Reps. Brian Bosma and Eric Turner visited New Albany last week to continue to promote the Republican property tax relief program passed this general assembly.

The News and Tribune:

The two were in Evansville on Wednesday before making the drive to New Albany. Their message has been one of support for the property-tax relief package, which will include $620 million in aid for 2008.

 

“The burden of property taxes was becoming unbearable for homeowners,” Turner said.

House Republican Property Tax tour continues

We’ve posted a couple articles on our blog about the House Republican town hall meeting tour this week. Bruce Borders, Amos Thomas and Brian Bosma held one of those Town Hall meetings on Tuesday in Terre Haute. The Tribune printed a long article.

“It is the strongest and most historic property tax relief package that has been adopted in my 22 years in the General Assembly and some have said in two generations,” Bosma said. “It was truly a historic event which will significantly benefit taxpayers in western Indiana today and also cap their property taxes in the future.”

 

Bosma said House Republicans sought to measure the tax relief plan, in part, by an immediate property tax cut of at least 25 percent to homeowners.

 

“For folks in Vigo County, that property tax cut for homesteads will be 36.2 percent. In Clay [County] it will be nearly 30 percent and Sullivan [County] will hit nearly 25 percent,” Bosma said.
