Budget Conference Report Issued

Subsequent to the conclusion of the Joint Legislative Budget Conferences on Sunday, April 27, 2008, the attached Budget Conference Report has been issued. 

Regarding the Conferences, House Speaker Marco Rubio stated:

“Florida is in a recession, resulting in the worst government budget conditions in Florida’s history. It is important to remember that as bad as it may seem for government, our people are hurting even more. I am pleased that we have produced a budget that is balanced and protects core services. We have done this without raising taxes, expanding gambling, borrowing money from the rainy day fund (the Budget Stabilization Fund) or irresponsibly relying on one time money.”
