Jefferson County Amendment 1 on November 8th

January 28, 2026

Friends and Constituents,

On the November 8, 2022 ballots, please vote all the way down through your voting sheet. In Jefferson County, you'll see a vote for Amendment 1. I heard from many of you about the constant increase in your property taxes.

As a result, I passed a bill to allow for those 65 years of age and older to claim a senior property tax exemption to freeze their property taxes from going up. This is aimed to assist our elderly population - who most often are on a fixed income - in not having their planned finances affected by any aggressive rate raises.

But, for this to become law, you must go to the polls and vote for this amendment on November 8th! I hope you will vote YES for this amendment, and feel free to contact me if you have any questions about it.

A "yes" vote on Amendment 1 supports amending the Alabama Constitution to allow a qualified taxpayer age 65 or over to claim a senior property tax exemption on the taxpayer's principal place of residence when the home has been the person's principal residence for at least five years. Please vote on November 8th!
