SJR 84 - Current constitutional provisions exempt from property tax all real property used as a homestead by a former prisoner of war who has a total service-connected disability. This constitutional amendment, if approved by the voters, removes the requirement that the former prisoner of war have a total service-connected disability.

This amendment also authorizes a property tax exemption for real property used as a homestead by disabled veterans, as defined in the amendment. The amount of the exemption shall be equal to $2,500 for veterans with a disability rating of 30-49%, $5,000 for veterans with a disability rating of 50-69%, and a total exemption for veterans with a disability rating of 70-100%.

This amendment is identical to HJR 95 (2024) and is substantially similar to SJR 58 (2024), HJR 118 (2024), SJR 16 (2023), SCS/SJR 40 (2022), HCS/HJRs 7 & 11 (2023), HCS/HJR 52 (2023), HJR 57 (2023), HJR 72 (2022), HJR 73 (2022), HJR 86 (2022), HJR 89 (2022), HJR 115 (2022), HJR 119 (2022), HJR 140 (2022), HJR 3 (2021), HJR 32 (2021), HJR 63 (2021), SJR 23 (2018), SJR 34 (2018), HJR 63 (2018), and HJR 57 (2018).
