Thompson Calls Tax Caps “Gimmicks”

Democratic Gubernatorial candidate Jill Long Thompson this week called the property tax caps passed by the Legislature “gimmicks”.

Thompson made the statement while participating in a candidate forum in Indianapolis on Sunday.

She said she supports capping how much property taxes can increase, but she says the caps passed by the legislature were a bad idea.

Thompson reiterated her call to reform Indiana’s tax code, but was short on specifics.

I have a message into House Speaker Pat Bauer to see if he agrees with Thompson’s assessment of the bill his chamber passed 3-to-1.  

I’ll let you know what he says.
