It was a busy week in Florida politics, and we’re highlighting a few of the biggest storylines shaping the state:

🏛️ Florida Legislature passes state budget
Lawmakers approved the state budget, sending the final spending plan to Governor DeSantis for review and potential line-item vetoes.

🗺️ Florida’s congressional map survives an early court challenge
A judge allowed the map to remain in place while legal challenges continue, meaning 2026 election planning can proceed under the current boundaries for now.

Washington’s agenda faced new friction this week as lawmakers navigated war powers debates, reconciliation delays, and competing priorities around defense spending.

⚖️ House Republican leaders delayed a vote on an Iran war powers resolution amid concerns over GOP absences and bipartisan unease around presidential war authority.

🧾 Senate Republicans postponed action on an immigration reconciliation package as internal disputes over enforcement funding, compensation provisions, and other add-ons slowed negotiations.

🛡️ House Budget Chair Arrington floated a third reconciliation package focused on additional Pentagon funding, spending cuts, and affordability measures ahead of the August recess.

Pittman Law Group continues to monitor the federal decisions shaping policy conversations in Washington and communities across the country.
