Bill > HJ0004

This joint resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to Wyoming's Constitution that would provide a property tax exemption for the primary residence of fully disabled veterans. Specifically, the amendment would exempt the primary residence and up to ten acres of associated land for veterans who are certified as having a 100% service-connected disability or who are determined to be totally and permanently disabled by law. The exemption would also extend to the surviving spouse of such a disabled veteran, provided the spouse has not remarried and continues to live in the primary residence. The proposed amendment would modify Article 15, Section 12 of the Wyoming Constitution, which currently lists various property tax exemptions. If approved by a majority of voters at the next general election, this constitutional change would provide significant tax relief for disabled veterans and their surviving spouses, recognizing their service and sacrifices. The Secretary of State would be required to endorse an explanatory statement on the ballot to help voters understand the scope and impact of the proposed amendment.
