Americans for Prosperity-Florida Commends House Leaders for Protecting Taxpayer Dollars
Tallahassee, Fla. – Americans for Prosperity-Florida today issued the following statement after the House Ways & Means Committee approved House Bill 5, which would eliminate Enterprise Florida and affect numerous other programs and entities.
“Enterprise Florida has long failed to live up to its founding mission of encouraging private sector job growth and promoting Florida’s overall economic health,” said AFP-FL State Director Skylar Zander. “It’s about time this ineffective, unnecessary organization is eliminated and its funding placed within the better-equipped Department of Economic Opportunity. This important legislation is a victory for hardworking taxpayers across the state, and we thank House Speaker Paul Renner, bill sponsor Rep. Tiffany Esposito, and House leaders and the Ways & Means Committee for advancing this legislation.”
