Gov. Rick Scott's proposed budget sets the tone for top-to-bottom cuts in 2011, from scaling back public pensions and education, to
privatizing correctional facilities
and merging a number of state departments.
Under Scott's plans for education funding, Treasure Coast districts would receive 8 to 10 percent less money per-student, and
schools statewide would see at least $3.3 billion less
from the state than this year.
Scott's budget
would lower corporate income tax from 5 to 3.3 percent
by January 2012
Organizations that provide local "safety net" services — basic needs programs for the poor, elderly, youth and other at-risk groups
— are feeling pressures of potential cuts from the state.Negron, chair of the Senate's Health and Human Services Appropriations subcommittee,
has called for $1.5 billion in cuts from his committee's budget.
Florida is about to get fucked up the ass.
