Gov. Abbott Priority: Property Tax Relief
HB 22 exempts all intangible personal property from ad valorem taxation by removing existing statutory exceptions. The bill repeals several provisions of the Tax Code that currently allow for the taxation of certain intangible assets, including transportation business intangibles and the intrastate apportionment of such assets. Additionally, it eliminates the comptroller's authority to determine and apportion the appraised value of railroad rolling stock among counties. The changes introduced by this legislation apply to ad valorem tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2026.
