They already voted to cut services. Just not their salaries.
𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗧 𝗙𝗥𝗢𝗠 𝗦𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗜𝗙𝗙 𝗥𝗢𝗦𝗜𝗘 𝗖𝗢𝗥𝗗𝗘𝗥𝗢-𝗦𝗧𝗨𝗧𝗭 Miami-Dade County’s adopted 2026–27 budget leaves the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office $42.037 million short of what is required to meet existing obligations and hire essential deputies and civilian employees. Without the necessary funding, the shortfall will impact planned deputy hiring, academy classes and critical civilian positions. The Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office will appeal to the Administration Commission. Through that process, Sheriff Cordero-Stutz will show where Miami-Dade County can find the savings needed to meet these obligations and provide the resources necessary to protect and serve the public — without raising taxes and without cutting needed Miami-Dade County programs.

🎙️ This is why every homeowner who wants to protect their investment must vote YES on 3️⃣👇
As if you needed any more reasons to Vote YES on Amendment 3; the Seminole Chamber "rejects" it.

I voted “Yes” on Amendment 3 this morning and mailed my ballot. Florida, have the courage to reclaim control of your local government and resist the fear-mongering tactics. The government seeks unquestioned access to your money and de facto control over your property. No more!

Replying to @patp358
Opponents of Amendment 3 will express or do whatever it takes to ensure that local and county government entities can continue writing blank checks funded by our hard earned money. Much of our property taxes are squandered on pet projects, ideologically driven garbage and other forms of egregious abuse and waste. It should be obvious that most, if not all, of these midnight hour attacks by opponents of A3 are coming from those who have a vested interest to see the abused property tax sham/money grab continue. If we were able to follow the money, we'd see evidence that this is the case. Look at the track record of @GovRonDeSantis proposing/supporting public policies that promote Floridians' best interests. It's clear that he's always been a demonstrably proven ally of ours in so many ways over his tenure as Florida's governor. In the absence of conducting your own research into the financial trail of what A3 will result in for Floridians, please allow Governor Desantis's ardent support of A3 to be the acid test you use to determine who is on the side of truth versus lies on this vital issue.

3 is literally everything the right and left have both been crying about for years - eliminating taxes (right wing) and maintaining higher taxes on the wealthier classes (people who own multiple homes and rental properties) it’s literally a win win lmfao

Jewett would be the solid pick
I cant vote for Jolly or Donalds to be our next FL Governor. Have to do a little more research, but so far the best choice seems to be Scott Jewett… Never Donalds Never Jolly

Florida property taxes are soaring, set to hit $84 billion by 2031. Amendment 3 could wipe out your non-school property tax bill for around 60% of Florida homeowners by raising the homestead exemption to $250,000. A ‘no’ vote means taxes keep climbing.

🎙️Hey @SWFL5440 ... I live in Pinellas County. You think your next focus could be on this?👇 ‼️YES on Amendment 3 👇
St. Pete is spending $590K on a study for a city-run power company, the same study Clearwater already paid for. This could cost taxpayers billions and offers no guarantee of savings. A YES vote on Amendment 3 would stop cities from wasting your money.

This is a flat out lie! Amendment 3 limits the amount of tax increases on rental properties at 5%. That’s a 50% rate reduction over the current 10% limit. Don’t believe the BS being spread and vote YES on #3. It helps everyone except the governments who want to take your money.
Amendment 3 on your ballot is a tax shift that will cut critical services and raise our costs. This November, vote NO on 3. Learn more: SoSFL.org

Save Our Services knows that right now local governments can raise the property tax on rental property 10% every single year, and that Amendment 3 cuts that in half for you! Save Our Services wants your money too!
A new Tax Foundation analysis estimates that by 2028, if local governments raise rates to replace lost revenue, property taxes could increase roughly: - $406/year on the average apartment - $1,081/year on a rental house - $1,196/year on an owner-occupied property without a homestead exemption Renters and working families with the least room in their budgets end up covering the bill, while the biggest homestead properties walk away with the biggest break. Vote NO on Amendment 3.

🚨 RENTERS: THE BIGGEST PROPERTY-TAX MYTH - IS THAT YOU DON’T PAY THEM. Your landlord gets the tax bill. Property taxes are part of the cost of rental housing—and you pay that cost in the rent. Amendment 3 would limit how fast the taxable value of rental property can rise each year: 10% → 5%. Read Amendment 3. Decide for yourself.

Come and see the fear porn. Vote YES on Amendment 3. Public safety is a funding priority, just not SOSFLNOON3's 🌈 gravy train with taxpayer funded spending orgies.
Fewer mosquito control crews means more mosquitoes. More mosquitoes means more disease. Florida is already in the middle of a serious dengue outbreak. Amendment 3 threatens to shrink the crews out spraying, checking standing water, and stopping outbreaks before they spread, right when we can least afford it. Some things are worth protecting no matter what.

#VoteYesOn3 #FLHomesteadTaxReform Keep your money, and spend it in YOUR community.
Great leadership by Sheriff Rosie for calling out those who are fear-mongering regarding Amendment 3 (property tax reduction). Taxpayers need relief and this can be done while continuing to support public safety (as Florida has been doing for years).

Don’t believe the lies. Amendment 3 lowers the amount local governments can raise tax on rentals by 50%.
Renters can’t afford this. Landlords will pass this cost down to their tenants. No on 3.

Watching all these politicians freak out and flat out LIE about homestead property taxes is not surprising at all. It tells us all we need to about why our founders spoke so strongly against taxes in land… feudal lords don’t like losing their power. Only two things lost when we stop taxing people’s homes: 1. Government power 2. Government corporate favors. Government taxes our homes so they can control our property and give corporations tax breaks.
Tampa Mayor Jane Castor warned that Amendment 3, a property tax reform measure, could have a "dramatic impact" on the city's public services if it passes, cutting key revenue sources. wfla.com/news/hillsborough-c…
