VOTE NO on
2026 NC State Constitutional Amendments
Constitutional
Amendment 1:
Voter ID
They’ll call it election security. It’s a new hurdle for the seniors, military families, and disabled voters who vote by mail, stacked on top of an ID law that’s already on the books.
Require all voters, not just those voting in person, to present an ID
This is already law - Republicans are trying to make it harder to overturn in the future
Vote no on principle, but also to educate voters on ID requirements
Constitutional
Amendment 2:
Income Tax Cap
They’ll call it tax relief. It’s a permanent cap that guts the state’s ability to fund schools, hospitals, and emergency response, all while the richest people receive the most benefit.
Keep the state income tax from being raised higher than 3.49%
Current cap is 7%, lowered only 8 years ago
We shouldn't take away decisions from future voters/leaders
Income taxes are one of the fairer types of taxes; if we cap them we may have to raise money in other ways (sales tax, fees, etc.)
Constitutional Amendment 3:
Property Tax Cap
They’ll call it property tax protection. It’s a blank check — a promise that Republicans will “figure it out later” in a legislature that left us the only state in the country without a budget for more than a year. And big corporations get the most relief while you get hit with other fees and taxes to fund essential services.
Requiring limits on property tax increases by local governments
This amendment doesn't actually establish a limit - it authorizes the state to do so (which it actually already can)
The actual limit/details/numbers will come later
Property taxes are the main way that we pay for local necessities like public schools and emergency services
