No more property taxes? Governor Ron DeSantis throws support behind the idea

Governor Ron DeSantis has suggested a potential constitutional amendment to eliminate or reform property taxes in Florida, which are currently local taxes. While some residents support this idea, experts warn that removing property taxes could lead to a significant loss of revenue for public services like schools and infrastructure. If property taxes were eliminated, the state might rely more on sales taxes, which could disproportionately affect lower-income residents. However, any changes would require voter approval.
