relative to the statewide education property tax and excess revenue from games of chance.
HB 234, introduced in 2025 but withdrawn before passage, proposed adjusting New Hampshire's education property tax system. It would have required the tax rate to generate $363 million annually for education, while allowing the commissioner to reduce that target by the excess revenue from state gambling funds (after subtracting $6.6 million, based on 2023 data). This mechanism aimed to lower the property tax burden by offsetting education funding needs with gambling revenue. The bill was withdrawn on February 6, 2025, and did not become law.
