Florida lawmakers on track for another long session amid budget proposal delay

  • February 12, 2026

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WCTV/Gray Florida Capital Bureau) – It’s starting to look like Florida lawmakers won’t get their constitutional obligation done during the legislative session.

More than halfway through the regular legislative session, there still isn’t a budget proposal from either chamber.

The Senate Appropriations Chair sent a memo to senators saying they are waiting to roll out their proposal when the House does. The earliest that will happen is next week.

Last year’s legislative session went 105 days after disagreements over the budget. The legislature’s only constitutional obligation is to pass a balanced budget.
