Capitol Update
The 100th day of the 2026 legislative session falls this Tuesday, April 21. However, the legislature is unlikely to meet that target adjournment date as lawmakers continue working through the budget and several outstanding policy bills. While adjournment within the next week remains possible, it is more likely that the session will extend beyond that timeframe.
Another Property Tax Amendment
House Republicans have introduced a new proposal in ongoing property tax negotiations, as legislative leaders work toward a compromise with the Senate and Governor Reynolds. The amendment (H-8374) to House File 2745 builds on a prior version and retains several key provisions, including a 2% hard cap on property tax growth, an accelerated transfer from the SAVE Fund, and a conversion of the state’s homestead tax credit into an expanded exemption, tripling its value. The proposal also includes additional limitations on Tax Increment Financing (TIF) districts, among other changes.
