Your 2012 Return on Investment

In this annual financial impact assessment, learn what the Indiana Chamber’s lobbying efforts at the Statehouse mean to your wallet.

In 2012, the Chamber aggressively advocated for and succeeded with public policies that will have a lasting positive impact on the state's economy and Hoosiers' quality of life. Chief among them: making Indiana the 23rd right-to-work state, opening up the doors to countless more economic development opportunities and jobs; implementing a statewide smoking ban; and ultimately phasing out the state's inheritance tax, while also significantly increasing the amount excluded from the tax in the interim. 

In total, the Chamber’s work yielded savings of $865 million for Hoosier businesses OR $355 per employee. Specific savings are available here by bill and issue area, in total and per employee.
