DALLAS, TEXAS (RFD NEWS) — Efforts are underway to bring property tax relief to rural Texas as rising land appraisals continue to drive up tax bills, raising concerns about whether farms and ranches can remain in family hands.
Texas State Director Genevieve Collins for Americans for Prosperity joined us on Wednesday’s Market Day Report with the latest on the proposed relief plan.
In her interview with RFD News, Collins discussed why property taxes are increasing for rural Texans and what is at stake for landowners facing higher valuations. She also addressed how rising land values are impacting tax burdens and whether voter approval may be required for certain changes.
Finally, Collins explained how the proposed relief plan could impact farmers, ranchers, and small-town homeowners, and whether the effort will be driven at the local level or require broader legislative action.
Texas Cattle Feeders Association Chairman Robby Kirkland explains how the ongoing U.S.-Mexico border closure impacts feed yards that rely on Mexican cattle due to the New World Screwworm.
