HCR 5014 Kansas House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Proposing to amend article 11 of the constitution of the state of Kansas by adding a new section establishing the freedom from taxes fund, establishing the Kansas citizens freedom review board, authorizing the board to review tax exemptions and approve or eliminate such exemptions and eliminating the state-imposed property taxes and income and privilege taxes.

This bill proposes to amend the Kansas Constitution to create a special fund dedicated to eliminating state-imposed property, income, and privilege taxes. It establishes a new board that would review current tax exemptions and decide which ones to remove, with the goal of generating revenue to pay off the taxes. Money collected from the state after these exemptions are removed would be placed in this fund and kept separate from the general budget, while interest earned on the fund could be used for further tax elimination. Ultimately, the bill seeks to fundamentally change how Kansas collects and spends money by removing specific taxes rather than reducing them through traditional budget cuts.
