Florida lawmakers go into overtime without passing a budget. Here's a look by the numbers

  • Florida lawmakers ended their 60-day regular session on Friday without passing a state budget in Tallahassee as negotiations remain stalled.
  • The impasse arises mainly from disagreements over proposed tax cuts, with House and Senate budgets differing by about $4 billion and no set timeline to resolve differences.
  • The GOP-controlled Legislature experienced internal conflicts and defied term-limited Governor Ron DeSantis amid investigations and legislative measures targeting his administration.
  • Legislative leaders announced a budget framework including $2.8 billion in tax relief after extended talks, but the deal is lower than the governor's $115.6 billion proposal.
  • The Legislature must return for an extended session through June 6 to finalize a balanced budget before the July 1 fiscal year start, costing taxpayers $50,000 daily in overtime delays.
