flag Florida faces a growing budget crisis, with a projected $6.6 billion deficit by 2028-29 despite a current $3.8 billion surplus.

flag Florida’s budget is projected to have a $3.8 billion surplus through 2026-27, but a $6.6 billion deficit looms by 2028-29 due to rising costs in Medicaid, K-12 enrollment, state employee health benefits, and annual disaster response spending of about $783 million. flag New legislative leaders emphasize fiscal responsibility, with House Speaker-designate Sam Garrison ruling out Medicaid expansion and Senate President-designate Jim Boyd supporting oversight and efficiency, including potential audits. flag Property-tax reforms may be considered for a 2026 ballot measure, while agriculture officials warn of labor shortages and food supply risks. flag Analysts say long-term sustainability will require tough decisions despite current financial buffers.
