CITIZEN PRESS RELEASE: The Committee to Abolish Ohio Property Taxes Provides Update on Signature Collection Efforts

STATEWIDE - The Committee to Abolish Ohio’s property taxes is very encouraged and inspired by the reception and enthusiasm the initiative petition to abolish Ohio property taxes has received from citizens all over the State.  

"Since obtaining the Ohio Attorney General's approval and the Ohio Ballot Board's approval of the proposed constitutional amendment last month, our grassroots effort has registered over 1,000 volunteer circulators to collect signatures, and the list keeps growing every day.  We sincerely appreciate the efforts to date of all citizens who have worked tirelessly to get signatures of the registered voters and thank the citizens that have signed the petition," says Keith Davey, a committee member.

The Committee is working with several grassroots organizations throughout the State who have joined them to collect the 500,000 signatures needed to ensure placement on the ballot. 

The Committee has decided, regardless of the number of signatures collected by July 2, 2025, to continue collecting signatures to place the Constitutional Amendment on the ballot in the calendar year 2026.

Committee member Brian Massie said, "Our message is very clear and unambiguous: ANY TAX CAUSING A CITIZEN TO BECOME HOMELESS IS IMMORAL!  The citizens are willing to pay for reasonable government services, just do not tie anything to our homes.  We refuse to continue renting our homes from the government.”

Our new Facebook page is Committee to Abolish Ohio Property Taxes.

We will be updating our AxOHTax.com website to provide timely information on signing locations throughout the state of Ohio.  Go to our website to register and become a circulator / volunteer to help collect signatures.
