HJR 145 Missouri House · 2026 Regular Session

Proposes a constitutional amendment granting property tax exemptions to certain disabled veterans

HJR 145 proposes a constitutional amendment to exempt certain disabled veterans' property from Missouri state taxes. It would grant tax exemptions for homestead property and personal belongings (like household goods and vehicles) owned by Missouri residents who are certified as having a 100% service-connected disability by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. The amendment would require the state to replace lost tax revenue through a countywide tax on specific commercial property, ensuring local governments retain funding. This change would apply to veterans meeting strict criteria, including honorable military service and Missouri residency. The bill is currently in early legislative stages (prefiled and read first time).
