Sources: 7. Developments: 2. In the 2026 midterm elections, Tennessee voters are presented with three proposed constitutional amendments. Amendment 1 seeks to modify bail eligibility. While Tennessee currently provides a broad right to bail that excludes only capital offenses, the proposed measure would grant judges the authority to deny bail for 73 specific serious felony offenses, including murder, aggravated sexual assault, and terrorism-related crimes. This amendment was sponsored by House Speaker Cameron Sexton and Senate Majority Leader Jack Johnson. Amendment 2 proposes a constitutional ban on the Tennessee General Assembly imposing a state property tax on real, personal, or mixed property. This would not affect taxes collected by cities or counties. Amendment 3 aims to expand constitutional protections for crime victims. For any of these amendments to pass, they must receive a majority of votes in favor and the total number of affirmative votes must exceed the total number of votes cast for the winning gubernatorial candidate. ## Timeline ### 2026-11-02: Tennessee voters face constitutional amendments in midterm elections Tennessee voters will decide on three constitutional amendments during the 2026 midterms, including proposals to limit bail access, prohibit a state property tax, and expand victims' rights. 5 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/tennessee-voters-face-constitutional-amendments-in-midterm-elections ### 2026-10-26: Tennessee voters to decide on three constitutional amendments Tennessee voters will decide on three constitutional amendments this November regarding bail eligibility, state property tax prohibitions, and expanded rights for crime victims. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/tennessee-voters-to-decide-on-three-constitutional-amendments --- Cite as: Tennessee constitutional amendment proposals.
