Property taxes and cost of living
Summary
Plans a seven-year rolling average for property valuations and to slow state spending growth so tax relief can come without raising sales, income or other taxes.
“My plan would use a seven-year rolling average for valuations across residential, commercial and agricultural property, creating greater stability and preventing the dramatic valuation spikes that have contributed to our property tax problem.”
“By keeping state spending from growing faster than the private-sector economy, we can maintain a stable budget and return those savings to taxpayers without raising sales, income or other taxes.”
Economy, jobs and trade

“We don’t need to raise taxes to generate revenue; we need to grow Nebraska’s economy, population, businesses and tax base.”
