The Nebraska Residential Property Tax Amendment was not on the November 4, 2014 ballot in Nebraska as a legislatively referred constitutional amendment. The measure would have permitted the legislature to classify residential real property as a separate class of property and to tax it differently than other real property.[1]

The amendment was introduced into the Nebraska Legislature by State Senator Jeremy Nordquist (NP-7).[1]

Text of measure

The ballot question would have read as follows:[1]

A constitutional amendment to permit the Legislature to classify residential real property as a separate class of property and to tax it differently than other real property so long as all residential real property is valued uniformly.
