How we calculate the "Score" for each bill we're tracking:
Bill Score =
total votes matching what voters want
total votes cast by the Representative on bills we are tracking
Where we get our data: open.pluralpolicy.com, a community project that pulls legislative data from the Federal and State House and Senate websites.
Official data: We track and report the votes reported by the legislature. Displayed votes are the most recent data available from the House and Senate websites through Open States.
Changed votes: Legislators are entitled to change their votes after bills pass or fail. Those changes may or may not be published by the state.
No votes: A gray circle indicates that the legislator did not vote on the latest motion for that bill. They may have been absent or otherwise unable to vote.

Cited as the “Live Local Act,” this bill changes affordable housing programs at the state and local level. The bill preempts local governments regarding development of affordable housing; deletes the authority of local governments to impose rent control; and extends an ad valorem tax exemption for the portion of developed property meeting affordable housing requirements. The bill provides over $700 million for affordable housing initiatives, including $100 million for the Florida Hometown Heroes program, $252 million for the SHIP program, $259 million for the SAIL program, and a $100 million loan program for inflation costs.
