Proposing to amend the constitution of the state of Kansas by revising article 11 by 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 motor vehicle property taxes and fees, state-mandated and state-imposed property taxes and state-imposed income and privilege taxes.
This bill proposes to amend the Kansas Constitution to create a new "Freedom from Taxes Fund" and a temporary Citizens Freedom Review Board. The fund would be divided into three parts to pay for the elimination of motor vehicle taxes, state property taxes, and state income and privilege taxes. Additionally, the bill establishes a board with the power to review existing tax exemptions and decide whether to keep or remove them. If passed by the legislature and approved by voters, these changes would legally end the specified taxes and allow the state to use the new fund to cover the resulting budget shortfalls.
