Bill > S0938

This bill aims to improve postsecondary education affordability in Florida by exempting textbooks required or recommended for courses at public and nonpublic postsecondary institutions from sales tax, requiring these institutions to prominently post textbook information and prices in their course registration systems and on their websites, and capping resident tuition at Florida College System institutions at a specified amount per credit hour. Additionally, the bill mandates that universities and colleges develop and report on strategies to reduce the overall cost of higher education, including textbook expenses, and requires public notice and comment periods for any proposed increases in tuition or fees at these institutions.
