And yet the federal deficit continues to rise at the fastest pace since COVID under Trump. Where is all the money going?
Although the state’s roads may benefit, programs to support rural communities, energy diversification, public health, childhood hunger, clean water, and other forward leaning programs will all suffer, as do all Hoosiers (irrespective of party affiliation). Given the generally accepted 2X economic impact multiplier effect from federal investment, this will translate into a net $1.4B loss for the state and loss of 7000-21,000 potential jobs that would have been created for IN residents. These programs are not being cut because of lack of merit or strategic importance. They are being targeted simply because they are associated with either Biden or Obama. How childish. Good thing Braun is a Trump ally and IN is not a blue state, otherwise this might have been really bad!
