Bill > HJR113

This joint resolution proposes a constitutional amendment to provide property tax exemptions for certain veterans with service-connected disabilities. Specifically, the amendment would create a new tax exemption system for veterans starting in 2027, where the amount of property tax exemption would be directly proportional to the veteran's disability rating as determined by the US Department of Veterans Affairs. Veterans with disability ratings less than 100% would receive a property tax reduction equal to their disability percentage, while veterans with a 100% disability rating would be completely exempt from real and personal property taxes. The proposed amendment would be submitted to Missouri voters for approval at the next general election in November 2026 or at a special election called by the governor. The resolution aims to provide financial relief for veterans who have been disabled during their military service by reducing their property tax burden in a manner directly linked to the extent of their service-connected disability.
