Florida Unemployment Numbers Down 2 Percentage Points

December 16th, 2011

I’ve got some great news to share. In November, Florida’s unemployment rate declined to the lowest level in 29 months. With more than 120,000 net jobs created this year, Florida continues to move in the right direction. Click Here to share the good news on Facebook and Twitter.

This month I laid out my proposed 2012 budget recommendations, which gives $1 Billion to education, and we will again balance the budget without raising taxes by streamlining spending and demanding accountability. Read more about my plan in the Daytona Beach News Journal.

Your feedback was instrumental in crafting this spending blueprint for Florida. I will continue to meet with businesses and citizens across the state to maintain our positive job growth, and I am committed to the same promise that I made to you to reduce the size of government and get Florida back to work!

Sincerely,

Governor Rick Scott
