“helped deliver the largest tax cut in Florida history”
What the record shows ·
He voted Y on all three yearly tax packages of his last three years. The 2022 package, passed 107-0, created a one-month gas tax holiday for October 2022. The 2023 package, passed 112-0, carried sales tax holidays and a first-year cost of $1.16 billion. The 2024 package passed 110-0, and it includes word for word a change from his own 2024 tax bill: voters must approve the county indigent care surtax.
Limit: He was not the sponsor of the three packages, which passed with no votes against, and his own tax bill died in committee. Whether 2023's was the largest tax cut in state history is not tested here.
