Florida’s Republican Governor Ron DeSantis has made a bold move in his push for conservative fiscal reform.
DeSabtis is appointing state Senator Blaise Ingoglia as the state’s new Chief Financial Officer (CFO).
The announcement, made on Wednesday, underscores DeSantis’ commitment to ensuring Florida remains a stronghold of conservative values in an increasingly volatile political climate.
Describing Ingoglia as “the most conservative senator in the state of Florida,” DeSantis emphasized the importance of fiscal responsibility and cutting wasteful spending.
The governor said the move aligns with his broader agenda to limit government intervention and reduce taxes for Floridians
Cementing his focus on tax cuts as a key priority during his tenure, Ingoglia declared:
“I am going to work hand and glove, side by side, with this governor to make sure that we get rid of property taxes on homestead exemption and offer real property tax relief to Floridians.”
This appointment follows the successful bid of former CFO Jimmy Patronis.
Patronis recently vacated the position after winning Florida’s 1st Congressional District seat.
The seat was previously held by Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL).
Ingoglia, known for his staunch conservative stances and track record in the state legislature, expressed his dedication to serving Floridians
