DeSantis emphasizes single income for families in economic plan for presidency
DeSantis, who is former President Donald Trump’s closest challenger in the Republican presidential primaries, released an op-ed on Monday in which he railed against the state of the economy and laid out his presidential priorities. Parts of the plan appear to align with a shift in the GOP away from orthodox fiscal conservatism toward more government support for families.
DeSantis also set a goal for 3% annual GDP growth as part of his plan. Candidates for president often set a GDP goal, which is a metric that measures relative economic growth over time. For instance, during the 2016 election, former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush targeted 4% growth. “We will do so by advancing an ambitious tax and regulatory reform agenda to unleash American production, increase productivity and growth, and support our families, workers and small businesses, all while lowering inflation,” the Florida governor said.
DeSantis has vowed to hobble the administrative state, something that he contends will spur red-hot economic growth by cutting barriers to that expansion.

The comments by Bigelow, who gave $20 million to the pro-DeSantis 'Never Back Down' super PAC in March, underscore donor concerns about the Florida governor's struggling campaign, which has been unable to make a dent in former President Donald Trump's huge lead for the 2024 Republican nomination.
