Property Tax Reform- Lent's Proposed "Property Tax Freedom Act"

End the Rent on Ownership: Abolish Property Taxes on Homes and Vehicles

Lent believes that home and vehicle ownership are core pillars of the American Dream. Yet under the current system, you never truly own what you buy. Property taxes on homes and personal vehicles mean that even after you pay off your mortgage or car loan, you still have to pay the government — or risk losing them.

That’s not ownership. That’s perpetual rent.

Lent's campaign is working to abolish property taxes on owner-occupied homes and personal-use vehicles nationwide.

New Home Owners

Why It Matters:

• Restores True Ownership: You shouldn’t lose your home because of an unpaid tax bill after you’ve already bought and paid for it.

• Protects Seniors and Working Families: Annual property taxes punish the very people who work hardest to own their homes.

• Ends Double Taxation: Homes and vehicles are taxed at purchase — you shouldn’t be taxed again just for keeping them.

• Promotes Economic Freedom: Keeps more money in your pocket and reduces reliance on unstable revenue systems.

Our Plan:

• Introduce the Property Tax Freedom Act in Congress.

• Offer federal incentives to states that eliminate or reduce property taxes.

• Launch a constitutional amendment campaign to protect property rights.

• Build a national coalition of homeowners, taxpayers, veterans, and retirees.

Join the Movement. Defend Your Home. Empower Your Future.

POLICY WHITE PAPER: The Case to Abolish Property Taxes on Primary Homes and Personal Vehicles

I. Executive Summary

Professor Lent Carr's platform white paper outlines the legal, economic, and moral rationale for ending property taxes on primary residences and personally owned vehicles in the United States. The goal is to redefine ownership in a way that respects individual liberty, strengthens economic stability, and reduces the burden on working families and retirees.

II. The Problem: Ownership Undermined by Perpetual Taxation

Home and vehicle owners face ongoing taxation even after full purchase and payoff. These taxes:

• Undermine the concept of private ownership.

• Disproportionately impact seniors, veterans, and low-income households.

• Create financial instability for millions of Americans.

III. The Justification

• Philosophical: Property ownership is a fundamental American right; recurring taxation turns ownership into conditional tenure.

• Economic: Double taxation reduces disposable income and discourages property improvements.

• Social: High property taxes can displace families from long-held homes and destabilize communities.

IV. Policy Framework: The Property Tax Freedom Act

• Legislation to ban or phase out state and local property taxes on owner-occupied homes and personal-use vehicles.

• Federal Incentives to states that reform their property tax systems.

• Constitutional Amendment Initiative to protect Americans from recurring taxation on private property.

V. Fiscal Replacement Strategy

• Encourage flat fees for specific services (trash, sewer, public safety).

• Promote efficiency and spending audits for local governments.

• Offset lost revenue with federal grants conditioned on budget discipline.

VI. Implementation Plan

• Introduce legislation through relevant House and Senate committees.

• Launch public awareness and grassroots lobbying campaigns.

• Engage stakeholders, including AARP, VFW, homeowners’ associations, and taxpayer unions.

VII. Conclusion

Lent ascribe to the moral, and so-called American Dream notion that ownership should mean freedom, not lifelong financial obligation. Reforming property taxation will empower Americans, uphold constitutional values, and strengthen our communities. This is not a giveaway — it is a restoration of what is rightfully yours. For years now, under current federal, state, and local government practices to force hardworking  Americans who've secured their properties through grulling backbreaking work to essentially be enslaved under a tax system that paid not one dime towards the purchase of ther respective property, is an illegal taxing scheme that has hurt so many Americans for reasons of double tax theft. This is why Professor Lent Carr has a shovel ready Bill to Ammend, and dissolve this pirate tax scheme as soon as he is Elected to The United States Congress for North Carolina's 9th Congressional District.

Let’s defend ownership. Let’s end perpetual property taxation. Let’s give Americans their homes — and their freedom — back.
