What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the homestead tax credit formula factors (maximum

income, maximum property taxes, and income threshold) are not indexed for

inflation after 2010. This bill repeals those provisions and restores former law.

Under the bill, the homestead tax credit formula factors would be indexed for

inflation for 2013 and beyond.

Votes

Suspending the rules (to take a vote immediately) needs a two-thirds majority — a higher bar than passing the bill, which needs a simple majority. That's why a suspension motion can show more Ayes than the passage vote that follows it. Glossary
