Senate legislators unanimously endorsed Gov. Mike Pence's short term road funding plan Wednesday, sending it to the House one day after House Republicans pushed through their long term road plan.

Indiana residents would pay more for gasoline and cigarettes but less in state income taxes under a bill the House has approved.

The deadline is Wednesday to move bills from one chamber to the next and several major bills have yet to move.

The House Republican road funding bill remains unchanged as the measure goes up for passage in the House Tuesday. Democrats made one last effort Monday to advance their own road funding plan.

House Ways and Means Chair Tim Brown says the tax cut, which would be spread out over the next 10 years, would balance out his caucus' road funding bill.

A bill that would have allowed for Sunday sales quickly died in committee Wednesday.

House Republicans rejected an amendment Monday that would have made it easier for the public to claim access to police body camera videos.

Randy Truitt, R-West Lafayette, announced his plans to retire as State Representative Tuesday.

The road funding debate gripping the Statehouse this year has led to a strange dynamic, with Republican Gov. Mike Pence and Democrats pushing back against a House GOP plan to raise taxes.

Legislation headed for the House floor would allow police to ticket people who don't move their vehicles out of the road after an accident. The proposed bill essentially replaces a law that was recently dropped from state statute.
