Glad to see @DonHuffines pushing to use for property tax relief, the Big Beautiful Bill refund to Texas for our border expenditures during Biden admin. I gave this testimony in favor of that on March 26, 2025.
Inbox: @DonHuffines says $7.5 billion border reimbursement should put legislature in stronger position to deliver meaningful property tax relief

If levies had simply tracked population growth and inflation, 2025 collections would be roughly $58 billion. Instead, they are $89.4 billion. - @JeramyKitchen, @TXPolResearch Why restrain local spending when they can extort as much money as they want? Relief & Reform Have Always Failed. And that's why we advocate for our bill to Eliminate Property Tax. The only one ever filed with a comprehensive legislative solution to do it. Contact Our Legislators. Ask them to Eliminate Property Tax. Demand they support our bill to do it in the next TXLEGE session. No Relief. No Reform. #EliminatePropertyTax

What Jeramy saidโ€ฆ
"On the other side of the aisle, President of @TXPolResearch Jeramy Kitchen criticized special exemptions as a way to โ€œshiftโ€ the tax base rather than reduce local government expenditures. โ€œIncreasing exemptions for one group without restraining spending doesnโ€™t eliminate the tax burden. It increasingly concentrates that burden on the property owners who remain taxable."

6 in 10 Texas Homeowners Will Pay More School Tax There. Fixed it for you, Paul. โ€œAs long as it is admitted that the law may be diverted from its true purpose--that it may violate property instead of protecting it--then everyone will want to participate in making the law, either to protect himself against plunder or to use it for plunder.โ€ โ€• Frรฉdรฉric Bastiat; "The Law," 1850 Relief and Reform Always Fail. This will, too. There is only one solution. Eliminate Property Tax. ALL of it. For ALL Texans. Forever. Contact Our Texas Legislators. Tell them to Eliminate Property Tax. Demand they support our bill in the next TXLEGE session. The only comprehensive legislative solution ever filed that will do it. No Relief.

Rep. Helen Kerwin (HD58) Prepares Our Eliminate Property Tax Bill For Next TXLEGE Session One of Our Best EPT Advocates. Last session, Rep. Helen Kerwin authored our bill, evangelized our solution, and, along with our 4 other authors, helped solicit the support of 23 legislators. That made it the second most supported property tax bill in the last session. Helen Called Today. To discuss what we may need from the Legislative Council (the TXLEGE attorneys who prepare bills for filing). This will make it ready for legislators to โ€œearly fileโ€ immediately after the NOV General Election. Contact Your Legislators. Tell them to Eliminate Property Tax. Demand they support our bill. The only one with a comprehensive legislative solution that will eliminate ALL of it. For ALL Texans. Forever. No Relief.

Bettencourt is a master at spinning his message with charts and graphs. No one challenges him. He "baffles 'em with Bull Spit." But the "conclusion" that 4 out of 10 will pay nothing in ISD tax? It's still, at best, "extrapolation" (i.e., wild -๐Ÿซ guess). senate.texas.gov/members/d07โ€ฆ

"Property Taxes Are โ€œthe Single Biggest Threat to Texans." There. Fixed it for you, Don. Last year, Texans saw the greatest number of foreclosure starts in the nation and in Texas history (37,215). This year, Texans lead the nation again. And we're ahead of last year. In the first half of the year, we've had 20,739 foreclosure starts. Relief & Reform Have Always Failed. There is one solution. The one that Texans keep demanding. COMPLETELY ELIMINATE PROPERTY TAX. No Relief. No Reform. #EliminatePropertyTax =================================== "North Texas Foreclosures Climb as Distressed Inventory Opens a Window for Buyers" thetexaslandagent.com/north-โ€ฆ

Happy Birthday, John Locke 29 August 1632 โ€“ 28 October 1704 John Locke was an English philosopher whose ideas about life, liberty, government, and property ownership strongly influenced Thomas Jefferson's writings, including the United States Declaration of Independence. His works also influenced the founders of our Constitution. No Relief. No Reform. #EliminatePropertyTax

ANY PROPERTY THEY CAN CALL THEIR OWN George Washington delivered the following message to the Continental Army. While looking out into New York Harbor, they saw, forming against them, the largest British expeditionary force in that nation's history until the First World War. "The time is now near at hand which must probably determine whether Americans are to be freemen or slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their houses and farms are to be pillaged and destroyed, and themselves consigned to a state of wretchedness from which no human efforts will deliver them. The fate of unborn millions will now depend, under God, on the courage and conduct of this army. Our cruel and unrelenting enemy leaves us only the choice of brave resistance or the most abject submission. We have, therefore, to resolve to conquer or die." - Battle of Long Island; 27 Aug 1776 No Relief. No Reform. #EliminatePropertyTax
