Gov. DeSantis chides Florida House Republicans on veto overrides, wants property tax cut

Gov. Ron DeSantis isn’t happy with Florida House Republicans and their decision this week to reinstate four budget items he vetoed last year.

In a one-minute video posted on X on Thursday, DeSantis criticized the chamber for “choosing to spend more in this fiscal year when we’re almost at the end of it anyways” while not addressing “pressing issues that Floridians care about.”

“We need relief from the condo crisis,” DeSantis said. “We need to enact permanent protections for medical freedom. We need a universal E-Verify to strengthen our existing laws against illegal immigration.”

For instance, bills to address the large assessments facing owners of old condo units have made some headway in the Senate, but haven’t advanced in the House.

And bills to require all businesses, not just those with more than 25 employees, to use E-Verify, the federal system to check a potential hire’s legal status, haven’t budged in either chamber............
