Baldwin to chair Senate Committee on Tax and Fiscal Policy

Submitted by Office of State Sen. Scott Baldwin

State Sen. Scott Baldwin (R-Noblesville) has been appointed by Senate President Pro Tem-elect Chris Garten (R-Charlestown) to serve as chair of the Senate Committee on Tax and Fiscal Policy for the 125th Indiana General Assembly.

Since 2023, Baldwin has served as the Ranking Member on the committee and has championed legislation lowering taxes for Hoosiers.

“I’m humbled by the opportunity to chair the Senate Committee on Tax and Fiscal Policy, and I’m grateful for the trust placed in me,” Baldwin said. “Many Hoosiers are facing difficult financial choices, and we have a responsibility to make every taxpayer dollar count. I’ll listen carefully and work alongside my colleagues to pursue practical tax relief while keeping Indiana’s finances strong. The challenges are real, but I’m confident we can help ease the burden on Hoosier families this budget session.”
