Matt Gaetz Cheers Rick Scott's Tax Cut, Vows 'No Tax is Safe'

Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz , R-Fort Walton Beach, the chairman of the House Finance and Tax Committee, looks ready to give the green light to Gov. Rick Scotts proposal to cut the communication service tax (CST) by $500 million. Gaetz even called for more tax cuts than the ones Scott proposed on cellphones and TV services.

"Last year, we had a goal to provide $500 million in tax relief to all Floridians,Gaetz said. We met that goal and this year Gov. Scott is once again leading the way on tax relief. His proposed tax cuts are bold and look to bring even more relief to the residents of Florida. As chairman of the Finance and Tax Committee, the governors plan is our starting point. In my committee, no tax is safe. It is the goal of the House of Representatives to find even more ways to decrease the tax burden on Florida's families."
