Proposes a constitutional amendment relating to property tax
HJR 33 is a proposed constitutional amendment that would repeal and replace a specific section of Missouri's Constitution regarding school district property taxes. It directly affects school districts with operating levies set by a federal court order in 1995, permitting their school boards to establish operating levies below the court-ordered rate without voter approval (though voter approval is required for levies at or above that rate). The amendment includes a specific 2027 transition provision requiring these districts to set their levy to maintain prior revenue levels plus a Consumer Price Index adjustment. This proposal would expire December 31, 2026, and must be approved by Missouri voters in 2026.
