Relating to the text of ballot propositions that increase taxes.

HB 5446 requires that ballot propositions seeking voter approval for tax increases must clearly state the specific tax amount or maximum rate and include the phrase "THIS IS A TAX INCREASE" in capital letters. It also mandates that tax reduction propositions must specify the exact tax rate reduction amount. The bill applies only to propositions submitted for voter approval after its effective date (September 1, 2025) and directly affects voters receiving these ballot measures. The law aims to make tax-related ballot language more transparent and standardized.
