AFP Cheers House Adjourning, Gets Ready for Special Session

Americans for Prosperitys (AFP) Florida chapter cheered the Florida House for adjourning ahead of schedule on Tuesday as it continues to oppose Medicaid expansion leading to a stalemate with the Senate over the budget.

"The House stood strong and negotiated in good faith," stated Chris Hudson, AFPs director in Florida. "Meanwhile, the Senate continues to stall a tax cut package that would help Floridians. The Senate should follow the House's leadership, pass the tax cut package, and go home!"

With a special session needed to pass a budget by the end of June, Hudson said his group will remain engaged.

AFP's over 146,000 activists across Florida will remain ready to fight any proposal that would harm Florida families, pick winners and losers, or waste their hard-earned tax dollars, said Hudson.
