Lawsuit claims proposed property tax amendment’s ballot language is ‘biased’
The lawsuit doesn’t address the policy proposed, instead taking aim at the ballot summary language the voters will see, which is labeled, “SAVE OUR HOMES FROM EXCESSIVE PROPERTY TAXES.”
A week after the Florida Legislature placed a constitutional amendment aimed at reducing homestead property taxes on the statewide ballot, a nonprofit group has filed a lawsuit seeking a declaration that the ballot language is “unconstitutionally biased, misleading and inaccurate.”
The action also asks the court to direct Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier to redraft the language before it goes to the voters in November.
