The hour long conversation focused on the negative impacts the plan may have and has had on lower- and middle-income Hoosiers.

November's collections put the state nearly $150 million below target through five months of the fiscal year. That's despite a second consecutive month of positive performances from both sales and individual income taxes.

U.S. Sen. Todd Young says it allows Hoosiers to keep more of what they earn; U.S. Sen. Joe Donnelly calls it a partisan tax hike on Indiana's middle class.

The school district will seek $736 million to increase operating funds and $200 million for construction and building projects.

Some say the corporate tax cut will spur investment, while others argue individual cuts don't offset the plan's impact on the safety net for lower earners.

Indiana has the best business tax climate in the Midwest and ninth best overall in the nation. That's according to a Tax Foundation report.

The first two months of the fiscal year put the state more than $40 million below expectations. September made it more than twice as bad.

Individual income tax collections have now failed to meet expected levels in seven months over the last year.

The increases include the 10 cent-per-gallon gas tax, which goes toward a road funding plan.

Indiana tax collections came in above expectations for the second consecutive month in March.
