House Rejects Record-setting Relief Amendment

Texas House Rejects Record-setting Property Tax Relief

As inflation ravages people’s wallets and skyrocketing property taxes force Texans out of their homes, public servants in the Texas House gave initial approval to legislation that purports to provide $17 billion of property tax relief. As Darrell Frost reports, it could have been a lot more.

State Rep. Tony Tinderholt (R-Arlington) attempted to amend the proposal by increasing it to an amount equivalent to $20 billion in tax relief.

The Republican-controlled chamber killed the amendment by a vote of 118-20.
