Indiana Governor Mike Braun says he’ll wait until just before his gas tax suspension expires before he decides whether to extend it.
Braun’s current order expires July 7th, but he says he doesn’t want to make a decision too soon.
He added he is still monitoring the situation in the Middle East and will decide just before the date whether the gas tax will be put back in place.
Braun suspended the first use tax and then the excise tax in April and May because of the ongoing war in Iran.
Meanwhile, he plans to reimburse local governments for revenue missed during the gas tax holiday.
Braun’s administration is working with budget and revenue officials to calculate what each community is owed.
