Amendment 3: New ballot language, same scam. “Jackson Peel of Save Our Services, said that the amendment altogether is still a ‘scam and tax shift’ away from essential services.” wctv.tv/2026/08/14/voters-se…

Amendment 3 does NOT eliminate property taxes for rental properties. If you are one of the nearly 3 million Florida families who rent their home, you will end up paying more as a result when landlords pass along higher property tax costs by jacking up rents. #NoOn3 #SaveOurServices #Amendment3WillRaiseYourRent

Save Our Services - No on 3 press conference in the news: 27 coalition members and growing are raising the alarm about Amendment 3. Hardworking families and seniors need real affordability relief, not a scam that cuts essential local services. #NoOn3 #Amendment3 #SaveOurServices

Florida's Amendment 3 is a scam: it gives huge tax cuts to billionaires, while cutting services Floridians rely on, like local disaster relief and preparedness Join our campaign: sosfl.org #NoOn3 #SaveOurServicesFL #SOSFL #FlaPol

Last Friday, state economists published their estimates for local & statewide fiscal impacts of soon-to-be Amendment 3. Statewide they said $12B. What does your local impact look like? @FloridaPolicy put it in a handy map, as well as a round-up of the ballot language details

Florida school districts could lose an average of $5 BILLION a year under the Governor’s property tax plan, per @FloridaPolicy data. That means higher taxes elsewhere, service cuts, or both. See how much your school district could lose 👇 floridapolicy.org/posts/map-…

“This should go without saying, but you can’t ‘make children healthy again’ by taking away their health coverage,” said Holly Bullard, chief strategy & development officer for @FloridaPolicy, a nonprofit that has advocated for the state to implement the KidCare expansion.”

Florida still lacks a statewide right to paid leave. But as this new report from @FloridaPolicy highlights, being able to take paid time off to care for oneself and one's loved ones would support hundreds of thousands of Floridians, and bolster businesses in the state.
NEW: FPI found that a statewide paid leave program would benefit upwards of 194,000 working Floridians. Read the latest report by Alexis Tsoukalas, PhD here: bit.ly/FloridaPFML
