- DeSantis vetoes $1.7B from his eighth — and final — state budget as governor
Gov. Ron DeSantis vetoed $1.7 billion in spending from his final state budget, including cuts to programs for the elderly, correctional officer pay raises, and the Budget Stabilization Fund. The $117.6 billion budget is smaller than the current year's and includes priorities like Everglades restoration, teacher pay hikes, and a cancer treatment program. DeSantis also vetoed prison construction and hospital funding, continuing a pattern of rejecting such measures.
