This legislation is in addition to the $450 million in toll relief the Governor signed in April.

DeSantis said his administration has saved Florida families $1.5 billon for the 2024-2024 fiscal year.

“Florida’s economy has remained strong despite reckless federal spending and failed policies in Washington,” said Governor Ron DeSantis. “This tax relief package will provide much needed relief for Florida’s families, especially as the D.C. political class shows no signs of reversing course on the inflationary policies of the federal government.”
