Constitutional amendment; elimination of property tax; authorization to levy consumption tax.
This Oklahoma constitutional amendment (SJR 15) proposes eliminating all property taxes by January 1, 2030, and replacing them with county-level consumption taxes on final goods and services sold within the county. It requires counties to develop voter-approved plans by 2028 to fund services (including schools) previously supported by property taxes, using a new Section 20A added to the state constitution. Counties must hold special elections for voter approval of any consumption tax levy or rate changes, with no tax exemptions allowed, and must revise proposals if rejected. The bill directly affects all Oklahoma counties, residents (through potential tax shifts), and school districts (which would rely on consumption tax revenue).
