Desantis signed new budget

If it was done in Washington then that would mean that Florida's budget would be impacted since a 3rd of the budget comes from the Fed

 

Florida is one of the least dependent states when it comes to the federal government.

Do You Live in the State That's Most Dependent on the Federal Government?

Shoot. In 2021 when the feds would spend anything. No state had a third of its budget dependent on the federal government let alone Florida as one of the least dependent…

Which states rely the most on federal aid?

 

"In between, there were vetoes denying vehicles to scores of police and fire departments, $6.4 million to provide free menstrual products to public school students, money for local museums and cultural events, and millions to private, non-profit organizations that help the homeless, the hungry, drug addicts and foster children."

Florida's DeSantis cuts $1B to bring state budget to $116.5B, slightly less than the current plan

 

You totally missed the point. If the Fed cuts back on spending then Florida will have less money

 

DeSantis’s budget also cut storm water mitigation funding. Oops, sorry S Florida

 

states can’t run deficits.

 

Most, not all.

'In 2021, 45 states required the governor to submit a balanced budget to the legislature; 44 states required the legislature to pass a balanced budget; 41 states required the governor to ultimately sign a balanced budget; and 35 states required the budget to be balanced at year-end (that is, the state cannot “carry over” a deficit). Overall, 29 states and the District of Columbia imposed all four requirements on their budget process. Still, BBRs typically only apply to states’ operating budgets, meaning that capital and pension funds are usually exempt from these limitations."

What are state balanced budget requirements and how do they work?

 

I liked that someone disagreed with this when Florida constitutionally has to have a balanced budget lol

 

Beat me to it. What an ignorant OP

 

Such a rancid evil movement, so insecure in their deficiencies. They just mindlessly destroy

 

Thanks Ron DeSantis!

 

The damage that can be done by one ignorant man

 

Gator40 evidently thinks the facts linked are funny... LMFAO!

 

No climate change therefore no rising water levels or higher intensity rain events..presto, problem.solved.

Fyi, south Florida has now had a 1x per 200 year rain event each of the last 4 years so they should be good for at least 800 years

 

How much money did he allocate to send Florida national guardsmen to the border of Texas? How much did he allocate to fly immigrants in Texas to Martha's Vineyard?

Quit pretending like he's small govt fiscal conservative you jackalopes.

 

Color me unsurprised that Stude has become a DeSantis fan. It was the natural result of his "anti-woke" inclination. What's a little authoritarianism as long as you get to stick it to the "wokes"?

Oh right, I forgot, DeSantis is a fiscal conservative. Just ignore all the millions he spends defending his unconstitutional laws and on his other political stunts.
