Florida's DOGE kicks off with audit of Broward County spending, Gov. DeSantis says

Cities, counties and law enforcement agencies across Florida will now undergo state audits, with Broward County being up first, Gov. Ron DeSantis announced Tuesday morning in Fort Lauderdale alongside the state's newly sworn-in Chief Financial Officer Blaise Ingoglia.

DeSantis said reviews by his Office of Policy and Budget and Ingoglia's Department of Financial Services will focus on governments that have "refused" to comply with state "Department of Government Efficiency" efforts, which were announced in February.

The reviews also are tied to DeSantis' effort to get the Legislature to put a proposed constitutional amendment on the 2026 ballot to lower property taxes.

State auditors will be in Broward County and Gainesville starting July 31, DeSantis said. The two local governments were advised Monday night about the announcement.
