Property Taxes and Appraisal Reform

Representative Brad Buckley of Texas House District 54, based in Salado, is a staunch advocate for property tax and appraisal reform. Recognizing the unsustainable rise in property appraisals, Brad supports measures to ensure fairness and equity in property valuation, particularly advocating for protections for homeowners and small business owners. His co-sponsorship and successful passage of Senate Bill 2, the Texas Taxpayer Transparency Act, underscore his commitment to transparency and accountability in the taxing process, instituting a 3.5% revenue cap on taxing entities and empowering citizens through mandatory elections for revenue increases exceeding the threshold.
