Florida Moves to End Public Funding for Campaigns
Senate joint resolution 1114 has passed both chambers and now making its way to Gov. DeSantis.
The resolution calls for a referendum on whether the public wants to end the Public Campaign Finance Act of 1986, which uses a portion of taxpayer money to help fund political campaigns.
The act provided roughly $13 million to candidates and is credited with allowing less wealthy candidates to run.
