State Senator Ryan Mishler (R-Mishawaka) made the following statement Tuesday, July 23rd regarding the 2024 fiscal closeout:
"The 2024 fiscal year-end results demonstrate why it’s so important for Indiana to continue prioritizing strong fiscal conservativism. While Indiana did dip into reserves for the Medicaid program, our state is once again closing out the fiscal year with prudent reserve levels. We must remain disciplined in order to maintain our state's positive fiscal standing in the coming years.
"I remain cautious about state expenditure increases as the state returns to lower and more historic levels of revenue growth, particularly in regard to the Medicaid program, as the current rate of growth in Indiana’s Medicaid spending is not sustainable and could adversely affect other aspects of our state’s budget. The Medicaid Oversight Committee, which I supported reinstating in the last budget session, will continue to monitor the Medicaid program this summer.
"As we look forward to the 2025 legislative session, we should consider using the upcoming budget session to regroup and ensure our state is on a sustainable financial path as we go forward."
State Sen. Ryan Mishler (R-Mishawaka) represents Senate District 9, which includes portions of Elkhart, Kosciusko, Marshall, and St. Joseph counties.
