Florida Amendment 3: Homeowner Tax Cuts vs. Public Service Cuts

Florida voters will decide on Amendment 3 on November 3, a proposal to raise the non-school homestead tax exemption from $50,000 to $250,000 by 2028. While supporters promise significant savings for homeowners, critics warn the measure will strip local governments of billions in revenue, forcing cuts to essential services like police, fire, and infrastructure. The amendment requires a 60% supermajority to pass.
