Texas Senate Passed Tax Relief

Texas Senate Passed Tax Relief

Texans deserve lasting, meaningful property tax relief, and we are delivering results. With this newly passed legislation, homeowners will see an estimated $500 in annual savings, keeping more of their hard-earned money where it belongs.

SB 4 Increases the homestead exemption to $140,000—or $150K for those 65+.

SJR 2 Increases the homestead exemption from ad valorem taxation by a school district to $140,000—or $150K for those 65+.

✅ Lower School Property Taxes – The average homeowner will see $363.44 in savings thanks to reduced school district tax rates.

✅ Additional Savings from SB 1 – Another $133.13 in tax savings comes from further school tax compression.

✅ No Impact on School Funding – The state fully covers the cost, ensuring that schools receive the resources they need while reducing the burden on taxpayers.

✅ Broad Support & Proven Results – This bipartisan effort, backed by 29 co-authors, builds on the historic $22.7 billion in property tax reductions passed in 2023.

This is another strong step toward making homeownership more affordable for Texans while ensuring that our schools and communities continue to thrive.
