  • Florida’s House and Senate approved joint resolutions Tuesday to put a constitutional amendment on the Nov. 3 general-election ballot for residential property tax cuts.
  • The measure advances Gov. Ron DeSantis’s push to slash property taxes, but lawmakers stripped local school districts out of the original proposal before passage.
  • Voters would decide whether to amend the state constitution, making the referendum the next hurdle for the tax-cut plan.
  • The move keeps property taxes at the center of Florida’s 2026 political agenda while narrowing the scope of DeSantis’s broader initial pitch.
