The Arizona Property Tax Break For Business Equipment Amendment, HCR 2011, did not make the November 4, 2014 general election ballot in Arizona as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment. If it had made the ballot and been approved by voters, the measure would have given businesses in the state a break on property taxes on newly acquired business equipment.[1] The measure was introduced in the Arizona State Legislature as House Concurrent Resolution 2011.[2]

Support

The measure was sponsored by Representatives Adam Kwasman (R-11) and Debbie Lesko (R-21).[2]

Path to the ballot

This measure was approved in the Arizona House in a vote of 54 in favor, four against and two abstaining or absent.[3] Then it was referred to the Senate Finance Committee, where it died.[4]

In 2014, a majority vote was required in the Arizona State Legislature to send a constitutional amendment to the ballot. Arizona was one of ten states that allow a referred amendment to go on the ballot after a majority vote in one session of the state's legislature.
