It's aimed at homeowners with primary residences in Florida, and it would reduce their taxes by expanding what's called a homestead exemption, which is effectively a reduction in the taxable value of a homeowner's private residence.
So that would result in lower tax payments for many homeowners and save them potentially thousands of dollars.
But on the other hand, it would also result in much lower property tax revenue for local governments, for the cities and counties that depend on it.
Property taxes are their main source of revenue and are used to fund everything from police to fire to parks, libraries, road repairs.
One state office ran the numbers and calculated that the projected reduction in property tax revenue in the first year that this measure would take effect would be $5 billion statewide.
Even though the measure hasn't been approved by voters, it could be so significant that they're already taking some measures to prepare for it.
This includes implementing hiring freezes, freezes on capital projects, on travel.
There are many local governments that are currently in their budgeting process, and what they're doing is preparing two different budgets for next year.
One if the measure passes, one if it fails.
Why is it so expensive to go out in Miami?
Well, a new report shows that our city just took the spot for the highest concentration of millionaires in the United States.
Even though the candidates have sought to focus on local issues like housing issues,
taxes and transportation.
All these national political forces have helped turn the race into a referendum on the parties and on Trump himself.
The race is a runoff between the top two vote-getters on November 4th
The Democrat Eileen Higgins, who is a former county commissioner, and the Republican Emilio Gonzalez, who is a former Miami city manager.
And it has increasingly become nationalized.
In the wake of recent elections, including the gubernatorial elections in New Jersey,
and Virginia, as well as the mayoral race in New York City, Democrats came out of them with a jolt of momentum.
And so a win in Miami would give them another boost ahead of the midterm elections next year.
