Florida House Speaker Daniel Perez wants to lower Florida’s sales tax from 6% to 5.25%. He announced his plan while the House was in session Wednesday. He said it would reduce state revenue by $5 billion a year. “This will not be a temporary measure; a stunt or a tax holiday. This will be a permanent, recurring tax reduction. This will be the largest state tax cut in the history of Florida," he said. Perez’s announcement comes as Governor Ron DeSantis is pushing to abolish property taxes in the state. The text of the bill reducing sales tax will be released next week. Here's the story: https://lnkd.in/e3kQv-k9 #floridaminute #florida #salestax

New grant funding is on the way for projects to boost water quality and supply across the state, including $100 million for 25 projects to help the Indian River Lagoon, Governor Ron DeSantis announced Tuesday at a press conference in Palm Bay. In all, more than $389 million was awarded for water projects this grant cycle, including $55 million for alternative water supply projects, DeSantis said.
