Ron DeSantis’ Political Games Are Hurting Floridians

Ron DeSantis is once again prioritizing his culture wars over delivering for the people of Florida. As DeSantis chases his political ambition, Floridians are the ones left paying the price.

Instead of delivering results for the people of  Florida, DeSantis is putting the financial standing of its communities at risk.

Miami Herald: “Rating agency warns Disney debt conflict could ‘weaken’ other Florida government bonds”

This comes on top of Floridians already facing skyrocketing housing prices, some of the highest health care costs in the country, and potentially a huge tax increase.

CBS News: “Florida is the least affordable place to live in the U.S.”

NPR: “DeSantis wanted to punish Disney. Repealing its tax status may hurt taxpayers instead”

WUSF: “Study finds employees in Florida pay among the highest rates for health insurance” 

And as Ron DeSantis is also putting Floridians at risk by attacking abortion rights and targeting members of the LGBTQ+ community. 

Orlando Sentinel: “With no exceptions for rape or incest, most abortions in Florida will be banned after 15 weeks of pregnancy under a bill signed into law by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis in Kissimmee on Thursday.”

Associated Press: “‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill signed by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis”
