A Florida property tax cut proposal is being revised after a judge's ruling. The proposal's title and summary were deemed misleading and must be rewritten. This decision was made by a Leon Circuit Court judge, who stated that voters deserve a clear and accurate ballot statement.
The proposal, drafted by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, aims to increase the homestead exemption. It would raise the exemption to $150,000 in 2027 and $250,000 in 2028.
