Vote by Mail Photo ID

Would require North Carolinians voting by mail to include a copy of their photo ID.

  • ALL VOTERS using Photo ID Exception Form are at greater risk of having their ballots rejected.
  • MILITARY VOTERS can’t photocopy their military ID (it’s illegal) and have limited access to photocopiers during deployment.
  • SENIORS may have limited access to photocopiers.
  • RELIGIOUS OBJECTIONS or DISABILITIES that prevent a voter from getting an ID wouldn’t be protected.

Income Tax

Would cap the income tax rate at 3.5%, locking in recent tax cuts for the highest earners.

  • AVERAGE FAMILIES will see increased fines and fees for services, which will likely eliminate any savings.
  • LOCAL GOVERNMENTS would lose $18 billion per year in state funding and would struggle to fund community needs.
  • SCHOOLS’ budgets would shrink, cutting teacher pay and student services.
  • PUBLIC HEALTH, SAFETY, and EMERGENCY SERVICES would be cut due to funding shortages.

Property Tax

Restricts local governments’ power to decide property-tax rates.

  • FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES would see more fines, fees, and reduced services for education, libraries, elections, public transportation, and emergency medical services.
  • RENTERS do not benefit from property tax cuts.
  • COUNTIES would lose significant funding and local leaders would struggle to fund the critical needs of the community.
  • COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE DEVELOPERS, many of whom live out of state, would receive a large financial benefit.
