Support HJR 67 — Cut the Tax Creep in Half

The Save Our Homes Cap Reduction Amendment

Florida families shouldn’t have to fight to keep their homes simply because government budgets keep growing.

HJR 67, filed by Representative Jeff Holcomb, takes direct aim at “tax creep” — the quiet yearly increases that push property taxes higher even when local governments don’t raise millage rates.

 

If passed, HJR 67 would cut the annual assessment cap on homesteaded properties under Florida’s Save Our Homes amendment from 3% to 1.5% (or the rate of inflation, whichever is lower).

That means slower tax hikes, more predictability, and long-term protection for homeowners statewide.

 

Plain and simple: This bill helps families stay in their homes, protects seniors on fixed incomes, and ensures Floridians aren’t punished for rising property values.


Why It Matters

For years, property assessments have risen faster than paychecks — driving up tax bills and forcing tough choices for families and retirees. HJR 67 changes that.

 

  • Stops tax creep by cutting the cap from 3% to 1.5%
  • Keeps more money in homeowners’ pockets
  • Demands transparency and encourages local spending accountability
  • Puts control in the hands of voters — not bureaucrats

 

Guardians of Liberty proudly supports HJR 67 as part of our Property Tax Reform & Spending Accountability Initiative, ensuring real relief for Florida families while holding local governments accountable for every dollar spent.
