Proposes a constitutional amendment exempting from taxation certain real and personal property owned by former prisoners of war, veterans with a total service-connected disability, and Purple Heart recipients
HJR 105 proposes a constitutional amendment to exempt certain veterans' property from Missouri property taxes. It would add former prisoners of war, veterans with total service-connected disabilities, and Purple Heart recipients to the existing list of individuals eligible for a property tax exemption. The amendment repeals the current Section 6 of Article X in the Missouri Constitution and replaces it with new language explicitly including these veteran groups. This change would require voter approval in 2026 to take effect, directly benefiting qualifying veterans and their families by reducing their property tax burden.
