Proposed Amendment No 6 S J R No 32 seeks to amend Article XVI Section 51 to increase the urban homestead exemption from forced sale from 5000 to 10000 dollars. The history traces exemptions from 1839 through the 1876 constitution, noting economic crises and policy aims to protect the family home and prevent public charges.
The pro side argues 200 acre rural land exemption is more favorable than the current 5000 urban or business homestead limit and would reduce inequities from rising values. It notes 100 years since the limit was set and cites changed conditions. The anti side cites potential abuse from a larger 10000 exemption and says social programs lessen the need to protect the home.
A report notes one fourth of teens' calories come from snacks with most consuming one to three snacks daily. It suggests improving snack quality by choosing meat, fruit, and vegetables as wholesome options.
