Vote yes on1

At a press conference this morning, Gov. Charlie Crist kicked off “Yes on 1 – Save Our Homes NOW,” a campaign to pass the property tax amendment in January. “Passage of this amendment will go a long way to firing up the Florida economy and the real estate market that we all depend on,” Crist said in Orlando to a crowd of about 200 people. Following the governor’s talk, a number of Realtors who attended the conference voiced their agreement. FAR supports passage of the amendment and has posted Crist’s speech and Realtor reactions on the association Web site, floridarealtors.org. To view it, go to: NEED URL HERE
