Why We Are Concerned

Amendment 5 would undercut education, leaving a $7 billion hole in our education budget.

Amendment 5 would force the largest tax increase in Florida history, requiring $200 more in taxes for every man, woman and child in our state.

Amendment 5 is a bait and switch, just like the Florida Lottery.
