PA HB900

Proposes a constitutional amendment to Article VIII adding Section 18, which would prohibit all taxation, assessment, and valuation of real property in Pennsylvania

The prohibition would apply to the Commonwealth and all authorities, districts, jurisdictions, and political subdivisions beginning July 1, 2030

Requires passage by the General Assembly in two consecutive sessions, followed by a statewide ballot referendum for voter approval

Justification cites Article I, Section 1 of the Pennsylvania Constitution, which declares acquiring and possessing property as inherent rights, arguing current property taxes deprive residents of property due to inability to pay
