#BREAKING: Florida House Speaker Daniel Perez announces lawmakers will put forth legislation permanently lowering the state sales tax by 0.75% "We must remove the temptation to spend."

Florida officials plan to reduce the state sales tax permanently

Low-income Americans who voted for Trump say they are counting on him to keep their benefits intact even while his Cabinet picks and Republican lawmakers call on him to reduce federal spending.

@Daniel_PerezFL They say this, as they move to add government agencies and fund them to the tune of $200m a year.

@Daniel_PerezFL Would be nice before the Summer!

@Daniel_PerezFL That’s chicken shit . Lower my property tax and home insurance by 75%

@Daniel_PerezFL I lean toward lowering property taxes. Let's DOGE Florida and all of the municipalities.

@Daniel_PerezFL This is nothing more than a chess move to counter the idea of raising property tax exemption or removing property tax all together. If property tax exempt is raised or property tax is removed, then sales tax would have to be raised to make up for the loss.

@Daniel_PerezFL Lower property taxes! Seriously! I don't mind the state sales tax. It's the property tax that leads to higher rents and higher mortgages.

@FLVoiceRadio @Daniel_PerezFL That is nuts!

@Daniel_PerezFL Lower property taxes for permanent residents first.

@FLVoiceRadio @Daniel_PerezFL Ironic since they voted to override the governor’s veto that cut spending.
