Yes on #3, so they can’t prevent descendants from inheriting

Yes on #4 so property taxes are lower, folks over 65 get tax ceilings lowered, and CAD officials get —elected— not —selected—.

Not sure on #1; leaning yes so farmers and ranchers don’t lose their livelihoods to city extraterritorial jurisdiction.

Not sure on #9; leaning yes because retired teachers haven’t gotten a cost of living raise in decades.

Yes on #12 to eliminate the Galveston treasurer’s office.

No on everything else; if it says “fund” it means taxes will go up.

#4 does nothing about spending, so it won't do anything about taxation. Raising the homestead exemption will require cities and school districts to raise property tax rates in order to fund their spending.

#4 is a request for a more progressive taxation scheme.

Vote no.

Yes on the first 4. Definite NO on 13, I have been in too many courtrooms with older judges who should already be retired.
Yes on the 2 county specific ones. No on all the others.
