INDIANA WHISKEY REBELLION: PROPERTY TAX APPEAL WORKSHOP

South Bend, IN — June 8, 2025

The St. Joseph County Libertarian Party is sounding the alarm on rising property taxes—and offering real solutions for local homeowners. On Saturday, June 15th from 1:00 to 5:00 PM, we’ll be hosting a hands-on workshop and protest event at the Indiana Whiskey Company in South Bend, focused entirely on fighting back through the property tax appeal process.

We’re calling it the Indiana Whiskey Rebellion: The Property Tax Protest, and it’s more than just symbolic. This event is designed to empower St. Joseph County residents to challenge unfair property assessments that are putting more strain on homeowners each year.

🎯 What Makes This Event Special?

We’re proud to announce that St. Joseph County Assessor Michael Castellon will be joining us for this event. He’ll be on-site to answer your questions directly, explain how the appeal system works, and guide residents through:

• How to file a property tax appeal

• What evidence you need to support your claim

• How to argue your case effectively in front of the appeals board

• Common mistakes and how to avoid them

You’ll also hear from local residents who’ve successfully fought their assessments—and won.

🏠 Why It Matters to St. Joseph County

We believe that property taxes are one of the most aggressive and unjust forms of government overreach. The idea that you can “own” your home while still being forced to pay the government year after year—or risk losing it—is fundamentally wrong. And here in St. Joseph County, inflated assessments are pushing too many people to the brink.

This event isn’t just a protest—it’s a call to action. It’s about restoring control to the individual, not the bureaucrat. It’s about standing up for our right to keep what we’ve earned, and hold government accountable.
