Florida sheriff budgets nearly doubled in 5 years. I support the police completely, but when budgets explode like this, somebody has to ask where the money's going.

Amendment 3 secures a 20-25% pay raise for all of our counties..
It stops the abnormal 50% - 4 year increase, that no one expected.
A3 moves us toward true home ownership and helps force more accountability for our government spending.
The 12 billion decrease is just a decrease in wasted spending while securing an all time high amount for Police, Fire, and Schools.
VOTE YES on 3 and then let’s come back and overhaul the entire system.

St. Pete didn't shut down its DEI office. It just changed the sign on the door. And David Jolly says he'll make sure DEI stays alive in Florida.

My Op-Ed @SunSentinel
I struggled with Amendment 3. Then my assessment arrived | Opinion sun-sentinel.com/2026/10/25/……
For me, the combination of what the research found and what happened to my own tax bill is enough. I will vote yes in November. Others can look at the same evidence and decide differently. But before voting, every Floridian should ask their city and county a simple question:
As property values rose, how much did you lower the tax rate — and what did you do with the additional revenue?

Florida's Amendment 3 is a great opportunity for Socialists to show us how serious they are.
Vote Yes to allow those of us who own a home to reduce our tax burden. If you are serious about being a Socialist, all you have to do is remove YOUR Homestead exemption and pay the full amount of taxes.
It's a win-win. Vote YES on #3

It's not a revenue problem. It's an out of control spending problem.
Thanks @Patience911x! Hillsborough’s public pay goes well beyond County Hall. Airport CEO: $750K salary + $150K bonus. Port CEO: $657K base + $300K bonus + $50K retirement. Different funding pots, same question: what do we get for it? Big paychecks deserve big scrutiny.

You have to crawl before you can walk. VOTE YES on Amd #3 and force them to put the funding on priorities. Not foolish pet feel good projects for special interest groups. All of the things you mention can be addressed but AMD #3 needs to be the foundation for reform. YES ON 3
I'm not forgetting about waste, fraud, or abuse. I'm all for holding local governments accountable for every taxpayer dollar. But here's what you're overlooking: How exactly does Amendment 3 eliminate waste, fraud, or abuse? Does it require audits, prosecute corruption, eliminate excessive salaries, or hold anyone accountable? No.
And cutting local revenue doesn't automatically eliminate wasteful spending. It could just as easily put pressure on essential services while the questionable spending continues.
I also don't want Tallahassee holding the checkbook and deciding how our local communities operate. That's not my idea of smaller government.
But let me ask you a question: How much do you personally pay in property taxes each year? I'm genuinely curious.

I'm ok with them cutting frivolous spending; in fact, I demand it. My county put 5 new positions on hold for admin assistants to each of the 5 commissioners at a cost of about $400k salaries/benefits. All thanks to Amendment 3.
This is the way it should be.

Because of the school district exemption, property tax will not be eliminated even if your home is valued under $250,000. We need to find a different way to fund school districts, one that holds them accountable for their spending. (I worked in a district IT Dept; I've seen it.)

I'm ok with that. Here's why:
1. I can shop in other states for products I need to pay less tax. (Like a car.)
2. The county can't take my home away if I don't shop, and therefore don't pay the taxes.

The state flagged Palm Beach County for $1.2 billion in wasteful spending. Now they want $455 million more in bonds from you.

There in lies your problem, counties don't fund themselves, TAXPAYERS DO!
taxpayers have had enough of the depravity and massive waste of OUR money.
Simply cut the budget.
We had every service before taxes doubled and service didn't
VOTE YES ON 3!
Red Floridian retweeted
FL voters need to get out of the mindset that budgets MUST grow each year.
Gov @RonDeSantis lowered the state budget each year. Local government can and will do the same if you'll VOTE YES ON 3✅️
Take your power back on Nov 3!
Red Floridian retweeted
The state has absolutely nothing to do with property taxes. This is a local tax, only.
The state has fully funded the rainy day fund, and under DeSantis, has paid down the debt by more than 50%. That's why the state knows that the counties can tighten their belts.

Most counties are acting shocked that Amendment 3 is here.
The fact is over the last several years there have been aggressive conversations about the abnormal rise in property taxes. I’ve had hundreds of converations.
The counties have had plenty of time to discuss solutions. Instead they just kept spending the increase - 100% of it.
They have never presented me with 1 solution.
And now they don’t want to fix it.
Our Counties do not have a REVENUE problem. They have a SPENDING problem.
The Amendment is FOR THE PEOPLE - Vote Yes!
And then lets come back and overhaul the entire system.
