Walker: Eliminate Property Taxes on Homes

(STATEHOUSE) –Republican state senators say they are “intrigued and interested” by a new plan unveiled at the Statehouse today. Senate Joint Resolution 8 (SJR-8) would completely and permanently eliminate property taxes on owner-occupied homes statewide.

“I support the permanent removal of levies from dependence on property taxes,” Sen. Greg Walker said. “I also realistically acknowledge that the legislation may not unwind all the complexity in one general assembly session. Yet, we must start the process of constitutional protections now.”
