Do you know about the 2024 Florida Amendments?
Florida voters will be faced with six constitutional amendment proposals on the Nov. 5 ballot. Each needs at least 60% of votes to be enshrined in the Florida Constitution.
Are you still unsure about what each amendment means and whether you're going to cast a "yes" or "no" vote?
