As a congressman, Pence advocated making the Bush tax cuts from 2001 and 2003 permanent
http://money.cnn.com/2016/07/15/news/economy/pence-taxes/
When Pence took office, Indiana’s 3.4% flat individual income tax rate was already the 2nd-lowest in the nation (only Pennsylvania’s 3.07% was lower). Still, in his first state of the state address, Pence pitched a 10% cut as an “affordable” way to “unleash half a billion dollars” into Indiana’s economy. The legislature eventually passed a 5% reduction, bringing Indiana’s tax rate down to 3.23% over the next 2 years
Pence proposed more tax cuts in 2014. That year, he signed legislation that'll gradually lower Indiana’s corporate income tax rate from 6.5% in 2015 to 4.9% in 2021
Every year that pence has been Governor, Indiana's had a balanced budget

Pence was the lead sponsor of legislation in 2003 that would've cut the capital gains tax from 15% at the time to 10%
