Counties Call to Action: Oppose HB 1380 3% caps on levies

We need your help in defeating HB 1380 which would put a 3% cap on property taxes for political subdivisions unless voters approve a greater, defined percentage increase. Please contact your House members and urge them to defeat this bill by voting RED.
The bill comes from the House Finance and Tax Committee with an 8-6 Do Pass recommendation. NDACo testified how the 3% could force taxing jurisdictions to take the flat percentage every year since they have no idea what needs may come up one year, three years or ten years down the road. Please emphasize the need for local control and dangers of capping local property taxes.
