AUSTIN — Texans, who already don’t pay a statewide income tax, voted Tuesday to make it even more difficult for state leaders to ever impose the tax on them in the future.
The constitutional ban passed overwhelmingly, with Gov. Greg Abbott issuing a statement in praise of the vote.
“Today’s passage of Prop 4 is a victory for taxpayers across the Lone Star State," Abbott said in a statement. "I am grateful to Rep. Jeff Leach for his bold leadership on this issue, and for the overwhelming majority of Texans who voted to ensure that our great state will always be free of a state income tax. This ban on such a disastrous tax will keep our economy prosperous, protect taxpayers, and ensure that Texas remains the best state to live, work, and raise a family.”
