Inside Florida's Budget Debate:
Affordability vs. Austerity
With Esteban L. Santis, PhD., Florida Policy Institute

A dynamic speaker who has been featured in the Tampa Bay Times, Miami Herald, The New York Times, The Washington Post, and NPR, Dr. Santis will discuss Florida's current fiscal overview and budgetary challenges, particularly as it impacts housing, healthcare, and education.

Research by Dr. Santis emphasizes equity, accountability, and transparency in the State's fiscal management, bridging data and policy to inform actionable solutions.
