(STATEHOUSE) - State Representative Woody Burton of Greenwood held another tax protest Monday night at a restaurant in his hometown.

Burton, along with nearly 700 people rallied to repeal property taxes. He says the way to eliminate them is through a constitutional amendment and a voter referendum.

One of those who attended was David Lynn, who farms 330 acres near Bedford. He's upset that half of his soybean crop goes to just pay for property taxes.

Eric Miller, of Advance America, spoke at the rally and said that there's only one solution. He said the only permanent solution to protecting your home, farm and business is to amend the State Constitution to permanently repeal property taxes.
