Indiana House Speaker Todd Huston said today that the General Assembly will not convene on Monday. The Indiana House of Representatives Is working on figuring out the time frame of the special session.

Lawmakers have 30 session days, or 40 calendar days to complete official business for the special session.

“I am calling a special legislative session to protect Hoosiers from efforts in other states that seek to diminish their voice in Washington and ensure their representation in Congress is fair. I am also asking the legislature to conform Indiana's tax code with new federal tax provisions to ensure stability and certainty for taxpayers and tax preparers for 2026 filings.” — Governor Mike Braun.
