Florida Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis argued on Monday that people are leaving states that are “financial train wrecks,” like New York and New Jersey, and moving to Florida to escape a “tax hell.”
Patronis told “Cavuto: Coast to Coast” that there has been an uptick of about 900 people per day moving to the state.
Florida lets people “keep their money” unlike some blue states, which he said are “upside down,” he stressed.
Earlier this month Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., also pointed out, speaking on FOX Business, that the Sunshine State saw a massive population boost from people fleeing high-tax states and long-lasting coronavirus restrictions.
