2022 Florida Amendment 1 was a proposed amendment to the Florida Constitution, which failed on November 8, 2022. Through a statewide referendum, the amendment achieved only 57.26%[1] support among voters in the U.S. state of Florida, short of the 60% majority required by state law,[2] although only slightly lower than the 2006 vote which implemented the 60% requirement. Had the amendment passed, it would have granted state lawmakers the power to change property tax rules regarding flood resistance.[3]
