Please call your city and county commissioners today and tell them to stop using taxpayer dollars to fight an amendment that would lower the tax burden on Florida’s working families, homeowners and small businesses.
For more information about how you can join the “YES on Amendment 4″ movement, visit www.TaxYourAssetsOff.com today.
Here are the facts:
Florida is already losing businesses and families to out-of-control property taxes at an alarming rate.
Amendment 4 will boost Florida’s economy by $1.1 billion and bring more small businesses and tourism dollars to Florida.
Amendment 4 will create 20,000 jobs and increase personal income in Florida by over $5.3 billion dollars.
City and county commissioners in your community are being encouraged by shameless Tallahassee special interest groups to use taxpayer funded resources to oppose Amendment 4. We have even seen some desperate politicians employ scare tactics and threats to keep you from voting YES.

The annual convention is in full swing. In the halls it’s elbow to elbow and the line at the water fountain is long and the thirsty are impatient… The almost-week long convention draws REALTORs from across the state. They come to socialize, to party, to get educated and to network. This is my first convention and I’m really excited.
My FAR day tomorrow is packed! Here’s the breakdown:
9-11 REALTOR Political Action Committee
11-2 Microsoft Excel workshop
215 -345 Go Global with Listings Unleashed on the Web
320 Meeting with Bob Caldwell to discuss Habitat for Humanity
4-530 Building Your Website
I am also taking part in the Florida Association of REALTORs Leadership Academy this year and we had our second-to-last group meeting on Tuesday and Wednesday, with the bulk of the convention following just after from Thurs to Sun.
One of the sessions/committee meetings that I am looking forward to the most is the Legislative & Political Forum on Friday from 5 to 630pm. I’m a political junky and this session assumes to have the most political action of the week because the main focus for the session will be a meet and greet Q&A session with Gubernatorial Candidates Bill McCollum, Florida Attorney General and Alex Sink, Florida Cheif Financial Officer and U.S. Senate Candidates Kendrick Meek, Member of Congress (FL-17) and Marco Rubio, Former Florida House Speaker.
Pretty cool.
