FL Doge Launches Investigation into Broward County, County Responds

3 weeks ago 38

Broward County Commissioner Steve Geller responds, "I find it interesting that the two counties he chosen to audit first are two bright blue counties, but I'm sure that's merely a coincidence," said Geller.

He said the state's numbers are off and explained that a large amount of money goes toward the airport, seaport and public safety.

Geller also said recently passed legislation is also causing Broward to spend more.

"They passed a law saying if there's homeless people, you have to remove them, but they didn't give us any money to do that; the county's having to do that. So, the legislature keeps passing laws that are costing us money and then complaining that we have to spend money!"

"We've given them everything they've asked for. They said, 'Well, you didn't pass a resolution telling us you support DOGE.' I don't support it. I'm not grateful they're planning on giving the county a colonoscopy, but we will follow the law."
