Good Morning from Orlando!
It’s official - Florida’s unemployment rate dropped from 6.7 percent in October to 6.4 percent in November. We haven’t experienced an unemployment rate this low in over five years (July 2008).
At 6.4 percent, we’re well below America’s 7 percent unemployment rate, and we added 6,000 new private sector jobs.
We’ve cut taxes, made government more effective and provided for a brighter future for Florida families. The result: an opportunity economy that created more than 446,000 private sector jobs since December 2010.

Today’s news is great, but we’re not finished. We’re proposing to cut your automobile taxes and fees by $401 million in our next budget. In 2009 those fees were raised, and we’re going to undo that 54 percent increase.
As we continue into the holiday season, Ann and I wish you and your family a healthy and prosperous 2014.
Gov. Rick Scott
