Florida TaxWatch has released its 2024 Voter Guide for the six constitutional amendments appearing on Florida's November general election ballot. The guide provides an independent analysis and voting recommendations for these proposed amendments.
Piyush Patel, Chairman of the Florida TaxWatch Board, stated, "Florida TaxWatch is extremely proud to present this comprehensive voter resource guide and has provided Floridians the information they need to make informed decisions about constitutional amendments. We believe our recommendations are the right choices for Florida’s families and the business community."
Dominic M. Calabro, President and CEO of Florida TaxWatch, emphasized the importance of careful consideration when amending the state constitution: “The Florida Constitution is the supreme and organic law of the state, and therefore, amendments should not be made lightly. They must be carefully and thoughtfully considered, and above all else, clearly define the relationship between government and those that are governed."
The guide includes explanations for 'yes' or 'no' votes on each amendment. It offers a summary of arguments for and against each proposal, a detailed analysis, an overview of fiscal impacts, and a determination of whether it is appropriate as a constitutional amendment.
Florida TaxWatch describes itself as an independent watchdog aiming to improve government productivity in Florida through research funded by voluntary donations.
