HB 99 replaces school districts' local property taxes (M&O taxes) with a state value-added tax (VAT) starting in 2030, if voters approve a related constitutional amendment. The bill repeals school district authority to levy M&O property taxes and creates a 6.72% state VAT on goods and services, with all revenue directed to the Foundation School Fund for public education operations. It also repeals specific sections of the Tax Code and Education Code related to local property taxes. The law requires voter approval for the constitutional change before taking effect on January 1, 2030.
