Relating to: local guaranteed income programs.

SB 202 prohibits cities, towns, and counties (political subdivisions) from using public funds - such as tax revenue, shared state money, or fees - to fund guaranteed income programs. It defines a "guaranteed income program" as one providing regular cash payments to individuals with no work or training requirements. The bill explicitly blocks local governments from spending taxpayer dollars on such programs, including funds from state shared revenue or local taxes. This directly affects all municipalities and counties considering implementing cash payment programs for residents. (SB 202, Section 1, 66.0601(1)(d))
