Florida Legislature Enters Final Week Amid Tense Budget Standoff
As of March 12th, the Florida Legislature is in the final countdown of its 60-day regular session, with lawmakers still working to reconcile a multi-billion-dollar budget gap. While the Senate proposed a $115 billion spending plan, the House countered with $113.6 billion, both notably leaner than the current fiscal year's $117 billion budget. The House Speaker has explicitly stated that no Senate bills containing issues that did not move through House committees will be considered in these final hours, effectively stalling several priorities for the Governor and Senate leadership.
