SJR 5 proposes a constitutional
amendment to dedicate a portion
of revenues from (1) the state sales
and use tax, and (2) the tax imposed
on the sale, use, or rental of a motor
vehicle, to the State Highway Fund
(SHF). Under current law, these
funds would be deposited to the
General Revenue Fund. Money
deposited to the SHF is intended to
be used only to construct, maintain,
or acquire rights-of-way for public
roadways other than toll roads; or to
repay certain transportation-related
debt.

Proposition Number 2
(HJR 75)
HJR 75 - In 2011, voters approved
a constitutional amendment to
allow a surviving spouse of a
100 percent or totally disabled
veteran an exemption from ad
valorem taxation from all or part
of the market value on the disabled
veteran’s residence homestead, as
long as the surviving spouse had
not remarried. The amendment did
not apply to surviving spouses of
veterans who died before 2011.
This amendment would extend
the exemption in such cases. The
proposed amendment would apply
only to ad valorem taxes imposed
for a tax year beginning on or after
January 1, 2016.

Proposition Number 3
(SJR 52)
SJR 52 proposes a constitutional
amendment to repeal the
requirement for the Comptroller of
Public Accounts, the Commissioner
of the General Land Office, the
Attorney General, and any other
officers elected statewide to reside
in Austin, Texas, the state capital.
Under current law, these statewide
elected officers are required to reside
in the capital of the State of Texas
while in office. This amendment
would not apply to the residency
requirement for the Governor.
Proposition Number 1
(SJR 1)
SJR 1 - Current law provides an
exemption of $15,000 from the ad
valorem taxation for public school
purposes of a residence homestead.
The proposed amendment would
increase this exemption to $25,000,
starting in the tax year beginning
January 1, 2015. In order to reflect
the increased exemption on the
homestead of a person 65 years of
age or older or a disabled person,
the proposed amendment would
provide a reduction to the current
limitation on the total amount of
ad valorem taxes. The proposed
amendment would protect school
districts from all or part of the
revenue loss by authorizing an
appropriation of funds according to
formulas set by the legislature. In
addition, the proposed amendment
would authorize the legislature
to prohibit a political subdivision
from reducing or repealing a
homestead exemption adopted by
the political subdivision. Finally,
the proposed amendment would
prohibit the imposition of a tax on
the conveyance of real property, but
would not prohibit the imposition of
a business tax measured by business
activity, a tax on the production of
minerals, a tax on the issuance of
title insurance, or a change in the
rate of a tax in existence on January
1,2016.

and manage wildlife and to preserve
the future of hunting and fishing.
The proposed amendment would
establish hunting and fishing as the
preferred method of managing and
controlling wildlife in Texas. The
proposed amendment is not intended
to affect any law or provision
related to trespass, property rights
or eminent domain, and would
hot prevent the legislature from
authorizing a municipality to
regulate the discharge of a firearm
in a populated area in the interest of
safety.
The proposed amendment will
appear on the ballot as follows:
“The constitutional amendment
increasing the amount of the
residence homestead exemption
from ad valorem taxation for
public school purposes from
$15,000 to $25,000, providing for
a reduction of the limitation on
