Taxation

Taxation

  • Property taxes disincentive ownership and force citizens into commerce. Texans should not be renting their homes from the government.
  • Pass a constitutional amendment to phase out and ultimately abolish property taxes and replace with a consumption tax system (Note that we should all strongly oppose an income tax. Indeed, the Texas Constitution already rightfully prohibits an income tax in Texas).
  • The Texas legislature should take bold steps to de-fund Washington and keep state money in Texas.
