AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Property Tax Amendment Watch: A Florida judge ordered a neutral rewrite, and Florida AG Uthmeier has updated the ballot language for the Nov. 3 property tax homestead exemption push—opponents warn it could cost counties and cities nearly $12 billion, while DeSantis appears less involved than usual. Local Elections: In St. Petersburg’s nonpartisan mayoral race, Charlie Crist leads in polls but may fall short of the 50% threshold, setting up a possible Nov. 3 runoff; key issues include housing costs, utilities, and the Tropicana Field site. Healthcare & Autism Services: Florida’s Medicaid program is spending billions on ABA for children, and a new task force is reviewing how services are delivered as federal guidance and fraud scrutiny ramp up. Nonprofit & Community Aid: Miles for Military, which donates unused airline miles, helped bring a Navy sailor home from Pensacola for her daughter’s final cleft palate surgery. Crypto Oversight: World Liberty Financial’s Bay Harbor Islands trust bank received conditional OCC approval to issue the USD1 stablecoin, pending pre-opening requirements. Public Safety: Florida’s primary election is Tuesday, with GOP frontrunner Byron Donalds making a final push on affordability, insurance, and property taxes.
