DESANTIS ANNOUNCES SECOND AMENDMENT SUMMER TAX BREAKS FOR GUNS AND AMMO

During a news conference on February 3rd, DeSantis unveiled his plan to forgo taxes on gun and ammunition purchases and discussed a $115.6 billion budget for the 2025-2026 fiscal year. 

The budget will include numerous temporary tax savings expected to total around $296 million.  Many of these tax sayings, or "holidays" are returning and have been included in previous budgets.

Some of the new tax break holidays include: 

• 14-day back to school sales tax holiday
• Two (2) 14-day disaster preparedness sales tax holidays
• A freedom month sales tax holiday
• A seven-day tool time sales tax holiday
• A two-month boating fuel tax holiday
• A Second Amendment tax holiday

The "Second Amendment Summer" sales tax holiday will run between Memorial Day and the Fourth of July.  Sales taxes on ammunition, firearms and related items would be temporarily removed.  According to the governor's office, the measure is expected to save consumers an estimated $8 million.

On Monday, DeSantis said "We are unveiling the 'Second Amendment Summer' tax holiday, so from Memorial Day to the Fourth of July, you can get your ammunition, your firearms, and your accoutrements tax free in the state of Florida."
