2025 Statehouse Report

The 2025 Legislative Session, shaped by newly elected Governor Mike Braun’s priorities, including property tax reform, health care costs, road funding, and school choice, resulted in the passage of the state’s biennial budget. Unlike previous sessions marked by strong revenue growth, this year’s budget required significant cuts and a reprioritization of state spending.

The 2025 Statehouse Report outlines new laws that impact municipalities, with most taking effect on July 1, 2025. Each bill is listed in numerical order and includes relevant policy area tags to help you quickly identify the topic(s) it addresses.
