Here’s how each Texas House member voted on the property tax reform bill

A priority property tax reform measure, Senate Bill 2, was approved by the House on a 107-40 vote Tuesday after a half-dozen hours of debate. More than 20 Democratic lawmakers broke party ranks to support the measure, which has garnered adamant opposition from city and county officials since its introduction.

The measure aims to constrain the rate at which property tax bills grow. But municipal leaders and many Democrats have argued it would hamstring local budgets while providing scant relief to homeowners. The House and Senate will likely need to negotiate the final terms of the bill before it can head to the governor’s desk for a signature.

One change made to the bill Tuesday stipulates its provisions supersede municipal charters and ordinances. This could mean Houston, which currently operates under revenue constraints, would see its cap overridden. Nine of the Democrats who broke party ranks to vote for SB 2 represent Houston. Several other Democrats who supported the bill Tuesday hail from districts along the border.

As passed yesterday, the bill allows taxing units to factor the cost of providing indigent healthcare and homestead exemptions into their revenue growth calculation. Tax revenue generated from new developments is excluded altogether.

Taxing units can also increase their property tax levy by $500,000 a year without triggering an election. And they can exceed the election trigger in some years, as long as their revenue growth averages 3.5% over five years.
