Our plan takes on Florida's affordability crisis in several ways. Let's start with housing and insurance.It dramatically lowers insurance premiums by creating a statewide catastrophic fund. It reduces monthly electric bills by capping utility company profits. It scales up workforce and affordable housing construction with down-payment assistance for first-time buyers. Our plan protects renters through expanded affordable housing programs and, to help condo owners cover special assessments, it offers no-interest state-backed loans. It's an actual plan, not an empty promise, to leave Florida families with more money at the end of each month.

Florida regulators have let investor-owned power companies earn some of the fattest returns in the nation while families ration the air conditioning in the summer heat. We will push to cap utility profits in line with the national average and put that money back where it belongs, in your pocket.

He also believes extraordinary success comes with an opportunity to help keep Florida affordable for the people who teach our children, care for our families, build our homes and keep this state running. Ensuring local and state essential services for all Floridians also should not burden Floridian families (like property tax) in such a way that they are unable to build wealth for their children’s future. Frank's Florida 9.9 proposal would apply a 9.9% consumption state tax only to spending above $1 million. The first $1 million in spending would not be taxed, and implementation of this plan would require the approval from Florida voters through their elected representatives.

Slash and eventually eliminate property taxes for vested Florida homeowners and renters. For each year beyond a year-ten residency vesting period requirement, Florida homeowners would be entitled to a cumulative 10%-point increase of their existing homestead exemption, until their adjusted exemption reaches 100%. Renters in Florida, who meet a ten-year residency vesting period requirement and who go on to purchase a Florida home, would also enjoy the same cumulative 10%-point increase of their new home's homestead exemption, until their adjusted exemption reaches 100%. Additionally, the adjusted homestead exemption shall be transferable to the homeowner's wife or children.
