Changes to Budget Stabilization Fund Amendment

Florida · November 3, 2026

Increase the amount of funds that may be retained in the budget stabilization fund from 10% to 25% of net general revenue among other changes

A yes vote means The state can stash away more money in its emergency fund, up to 25% of what it takes in each year.
A no vote means The emergency fund stays capped at 10% of yearly income like it is now.
Simple explanation
Right now the state saves up money for emergencies in a rainy day fund, but it can only keep 10% of its yearly income in there. This measure lets them save up to 25% instead, so they've got more cushion when things get tight.
