Property taxes remain out of control and neither the Governor nor the State Legislature has a plan to relieve the growing tax burden on Nebraska families, retirees, farmers and ranchers. When the Governor called for a special session last year to fix the problem, the State Legislature responded by eliminating the 2023 property tax credit. This essentially raised everyone’s property taxes instead of lowering them.
It’s clear: the system isn’t working. But EPIC Option (epicoption.info) 2.0 is the solution.
EPIC Option 2.0 will eliminate the property tax, personal and corporate income taxes and the inheritance tax by amending the Nebraska State Constitution through a ballot initiative. In 1966, the people of Nebraska changed the tax code through a successful ballot initiative. We’re ready to do it again in 2026.
The EPIC Option 2.0 ballot initiative will provide the State Legislature with a variety of options, including sales taxes, excise taxes and consumption taxes. Each of these taxes will be available as a means of taxation, including any combination thereof. Our ballot language is simple, straightforward and easy to understand.
We are launching the EPIC Option 2.0 ballot initiative today to collect signatures to place it on the 2026 general election ballot.
