  • There's about 1,200 bills filed but only some of them will become law. Here, we're tracking the bills that actually progress in the legislature.

The Indiana Senate has recently passed several key bills, including a measure to cut the state's income tax rate from 3.15% to 2.9% by 2027, aiming to provide tax relief to Hoosiers. Another significant bill passed is Senate Bill 1, which focuses on parental rights, allowing parents to review educational materials and opt their children out of certain lessons or activities. Additionally, the Senate approved Senate Bill 12, which would ban transition-related care for transgender youth, and Senate Bill 50, which seeks to limit the use of preferred pronouns in schools. Other legislative actions include Senate Bill 134, which would require schools to notify parents if a student requests a name or pronoun change, and Senate Bill 282, which addresses the teaching of human sexuality in schools. These bills reflect a legislative session focused on tax policy, educational content, and issues related to gender identity and parental involvement in education.
