SJR 12 Oklahoma Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Constitutional amendment; vote of the people; elimination of ad valorem tax; providing ballot title.

This Oklahoma constitutional amendment resolution (SJR 12) proposes to eliminate all ad valorem property taxes by repealing specific sections of the state constitution that currently govern property taxation. If approved by voters, it would remove constitutional provisions allowing property taxes (affecting all Oklahoma property owners and local taxing jurisdictions) and amend the State Board of Equalization's duties. The bill requires voter approval via referendum (with a ballot title stating it would "eliminate all property taxes") and would take effect January 1, 2030. The measure focuses on changing constitutional text rather than immediate policy implementation.
