REVIEW SUMMARY
What. Florida Legislature finished on time, but will get called back.
Issue. Will economic incentives pay off fast enough to plug next year's projected $6 billion deficit, and will the governor veto the budget or call for a special session?
Impact. The Legislature didn't raise taxes, but business incentive tax breaks ultimately come from taxpayers.
For a legislative session that included a failed bill to hike up droopy drawers, and one banning bongs, snakes and lizards that passed, the Legislature managed to keep some focus on business issues.
A deep recession will do that.
