“Andrew Gillum’s radical billion-dollar tax hike would bring Florida’s booming economy to a sudden stop,” said RGA Communications Director Jon Thompson. “Gillum has already hiked property taxes in Tallahassee, and now he wants to make Florida’s tax rate higher than New York’s. Florida’s working families can’t afford the economic consequences of Gillum’s billion-dollar tax hike.”
