Governor Pence Spokesman Statement on House Democrats Infrastructure Plan

Following the Indiana House Democrats infrastructure proposal today, Matt Lloyd, a spokesman for Governor Mike Pence, issued the following statement.

“Governor Pence welcomes House Democrats to the conversation about infrastructure funding. Sadly, the plan presented today by House Democrats forces Hoosiers to choose between cutting $500 million from the general fund for vital services like K-12 tuition support, teacher pensions, Medicaid and state hospitals or going broke in four years. That is irresponsible and not serious. Governor Pence proposed a responsible plan that  provides vital infrastructure funding without raising taxes or cutting vital services for Hoosier families.”
