Relating to the abolition of ad valorem taxes and the creation of a joint interim committee on the abolition of those taxes.

HB 45 creates a joint interim committee to study the abolition of ad valorem taxes, which are taxes based on property value. The committee would examine the impacts of eliminating these taxes and develop recommendations for their removal. Property owners who pay these taxes and local governments that rely on them for revenue would be directly affected by the committee's work. The bill was filed on July 14, 2025, and remains in early legislative stages.
