Rick Scott Promotes Business Rent Sales Tax Reduction

On Monday, Gov. Rick Scott doubled down on his call to lower the business rent sales tax by $100 million during an appearance at R2 Unified Technologies in Boca Raton.

Scotts proposed budget contains that reducation and lowering vehicle registration fees by $400 million.

This tax costs Florida businesses $1.4 billion per year, and our proposed reduction means $100 million in savings for Florida businesses, Scott said. These savings will help business grow and allow them to keep more of their hard-earned money.
