Last update Sept. 25, 2014: Coming into the 2014 session, Gov. Rick Scott announced plans to use a $1 billion plus surplus to cut taxes by $500 million. Scott got his wish, with the majority of the cut coming from a rollback in motor vehicle registration fees raised under former Gov. Charlie Crist's administration during the height of the Great Recession. Floridians also got a trio of sales tax holidays and smaller cuts for items such as child car seats and prepaid calling plans.
