The Costs of Conformity: How OBBBA's Provisions Could Impact Indiana's Budget

How much could conformity cost Indiana?

Mirroring OBBBA provisions could leave Hoosier households and service providers to do more with less.

Indiana's revenue forecast was challenged by a nearly $2.4 billion shortfall in 2025, pushing lawmakers to trim spending in places where Hoosiers and their families could least afford it. Now, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act introduces a new slate of income tax deductions that, if mirrored at the state level, will exacerbate this challenge. In this webinar, Neva Butkus, Senior Analyst from the Institute of Taxation and Economic Policy, will share research on the impact of mirroring, or conforming, with these provisions at the state level, down to the dollars and cents.

Participants will learn:

• The cost of mirroring various OBBBA income tax deductions at the state level
• How advocates have seen revenue shortfalls managed by lawmakers in recent history
• How to stay informed and engaged as advocates for Hoosier households, its social service institutions and its community development sector
