Florida Tax Watch opposes Amendment 3 property tax reform
Florida Tax Watch urges voters to reject Amendment 3, arguing the property tax reform lacks spending guardrails and harms local governments. Critics warn it threatens public safety budgets.
Florida Tax Watch urged voters to defeat Amendment 3, a proposed property tax cut for homeowners, arguing the measure lacks municipal spending guardrails. The government watchdog warned the ballot initiative could hurt vulnerable Floridians and disrupt local budgets. The constitutional overhaul would increase the homestead exemption from $25,000 to $250,000 over two years while lowering non-homestead caps from 10% to 5%. Defeating the measure allows state leaders to pursue comprehensive tax reform that protects public safety services.
