PRESS RELEASE March 20, 2000

Tallahassee, FL – “Florida TaxWatch commends Rep. Sharon Merchant for again introducing an “anti-turkey” bill this legislative session. We appreciate her ongoing concern with making our state budget fair and understandable to taxpayers. “If House Bill 27 can move us toward a more competitive and accountable use of taxpayers’ money, then Rep. Merchant’s bill is indeed a laudable initiative.”
