Florida Governor Hopeful Proposes 50% OnlyFans Sin Tax

Republican James Fishback plans a 50% tax on OnlyFans income in Florida to raise hundreds of millions for education, crisis centers, and a men's mental health czar.

  • Recently, James Fishback proposed a 50% 'sin tax' on income earned by OnlyFans creators who reside in Florida, saying proceeds would fund Florida's education system, crisis pregnancy centers and a mental health czar for men.
  • He launched his campaign on 24 November 2025, positioning himself as DeSantis-aligned but failing to gain President Donald Trump's endorsement, which went to Rep. Byron Donalds.
  • The creator dismissed the plan, saying `Targeting a group of individuals using their job to survive when there are multibillion dollar corrupt businesses that don't pay any taxes is insane` on X Tuesday.
  • Legal observers warn the plan faces steep constitutional hurdles and critics say it would disproportionately affect low-income OnlyFans creators in Florida, making it politically and legally explosive.
  • Florida's tax structure, which lacks a personal income tax, makes Fishback's proposed 50% levy on OnlyFans creators unprecedented, while enforcement is complicated as only independent creators handle their tax filings.
