A look at some of the more interesting line items, tax breaks and policy changes embedded in the $115 billion budget that Florida state lawmakers will approve tomorrow.
So, we'll tax the Lottery winnings of Joe and Jane Six-Pack but not the earnings of the posh legions at gambling emporiums? (Is this because of the old adage, that the house always wins?)
Taxpayers are to fund Human Coalition which will "intercept women seeking abortions"? Whoa! This smells like impending fascism.
And, once again, adding a little sugar to Dee's bowl gets another pro sports franchise a big win. (Didn't Dee promise the state would get out of subsidizing pro sports?)
Desantis and republicans in the pockets of so many…. How to ruin a state …. Start Project 2025. Year 2 . Tourists stop coming. Only rich people move in. Doctors and Teachers move out. Housing crisis for workers…. Put construction in full gear leaving no green spaces, only 4 and 8 lane roads… accidents everywhere and you can get shot on a highway because guns are allowed to be carried even in the open now. So the gun happy people are brandishing their weapons to say they are the tough ones. Texas lil sister!?!
Florida attracted freedom loving citizens away from blue state vaccine mandate tyranny, only to threaten them with jail should they dare to criticize the nation state of Israel. Be afraid
Thanks for this. Also worth mentioning is a $10 million appropriation for a proposed sports complex at Nathan Benderson Park in Sarasota under the guise of it being suitable to use in hurricanes.

Those first four “tax cuts or tax changes” are really something…a tax break on silencers, eh?
