In an effort to alleviate the financial burdens of Florida residents, Governor Ron DeSantis has now affixed his signature to House Bill 7073, which will implement tax cuts amounting to $1.07 billion for the current fiscal year.
In conjunction with a $450 million toll relief initiative that was recently ratified, this additional legislation will provide Florida households with a cumulative savings of $1.5 billion for the fiscal year 2024.
DeSantis emphasized that the tax relief package would provide “exceedingly necessary relief for the families of Florida.”
In addition to specific homeowner assistance provisions, the tax bundle includes a one-year exemption on residential property taxes and flood insurance premiums.
This strategy, which House Speaker Paul Renner has dubbed “the Florida Way,” aims to create a place where citizens are able to work, enjoy, and raise families without being subjected to excessive taxation.
When this measure is signed into law, the state of Florida will levy some of the most minimal taxes in the entire country.
DeSantis has effectively executed tax reductions amounting to $6.7 billion since 2019, all the while sustaining a budget surplus.
