Summary

The amendment would make any new local tax or increase to an existing tax require a majority vote of qualified voters, and after 2027 also require that at least 30% of all qualified voters cast a ballot on the measure. It applies to all local government units, with exceptions for taxes tied to bonds approved before the amendment. The change aims to ensure broader voter participation in tax decisions.
