TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (News Service of Florida) - The Florida House on Friday moved away from a plan to use the largest chunk of expected federal stimulus dollars on long-overdue building maintenance, while going along with Senate spending priorities and eyeing money for a childrenâs book-distribution program.
As talks continue over a new state budget, the House pitched a $6.2 billion offer Friday morning for using stimulus money that Florida is slated to receive under the American Rescue Plan Act.
Florida House and Senate committees have moved forward with budget proposals that stand $2 billion apart and take different approaches to $10 billion in federal stimulus money headed to state government.
