Constitutional amendment to authorize suits against political subdivisions for extending expiring taxes without voter approval at a general election
This bill proposes a constitutional amendment that would allow individuals to file lawsuits against political subdivisions if they extend expiring taxes without prior voter approval at a November general election. The amendment specifically targets situations where local governments extend tax measures that have already expired, violating state laws by bypassing the required voting process. If approved by voters, this change would create a legal mechanism for citizens to challenge such unauthorized tax extensions in court. Currently, the bill has been indefinitely postponed and has not been enacted into law.
