relative to the property tax exemption for religious organizations.
HB 585 would have modified property tax exemption rules for religious organizations, potentially affecting how such entities qualify for tax relief on their properties. The bill did not advance, as the committee voted 20-0 on October 16, 2025, to declare it "Inexpedient to Legislate." This means the committee determined the bill should not move forward to the full chamber. The measure remains inactive and has no current legislative effect.
