Rick Scott Kicks off Tax Cut Tour in West Palm Beach

Gov. Rick Scott kicked off his new four-day tax cut tour in West Palm Beach Tuesday. The "It's Your Money" tour follows Scott's recent announcement of his plan to cut taxes and fees for Florida families by $500 million in the next proposed budget.

Scott will be making stops in five major cities, including Tampa, Orlando and Jacksonville.

"Well, it's your money. Next year, we're going to have the biggest general revenue in this history of this state," Scott said. "We're going to have a budget surplus now. As you know, I came in with a big budget deficit. We've turned the economy around. So as we do this, we should give some of your money back," Rick Scott said.

Florida Democrats were quick to condemn Scott's tax tour, decrying it as an effort to round up votes.

We need an investment tour instead of election year vote-buying, said Senate Democratic Leader Chris Smith. We have neglected so many things for so many years.
