Both legislative chambers released budget proposals, with the Senate plan at $117.36 billion and the House at $112.9 billion. Both proposals came in below the adjusted revenue total of $118.6 billion for the current year. "This budget reflects a return to a more normal budget spending pattern, aligned with our revenues over the long term," Senate Budget Chief Ed Hooper said. The Senate plan includes a 4% raise for all state employees, with a minimum annual raise of $1,500, while state firefighters and veteran state law enforcement officers could receive pay increases of up to 15%. The House budget allows for a proposed sales tax decrease from 6% to 5.25%. | SpaceX to Launch First Human Polar Orbit Mission SpaceX's privately funded Fram2 mission will be the first human spaceflight to cruise over Earth's polar regions. Four astronauts will be aboard for the four-day orbital mission. If weather conditions allow, Fram2 could launch as soon as tonight aboard SpaceX's Crew Dragon capsule Resilience. The capsule will carry a variety of scientific experiments, launching from NASA's Kennedy Space Center. Named after a Norwegian ship that explored the Arctic and Antarctic regions at the turn of the 20th century, Fram2 will be SpaceX's sixth privately funded astronaut mission and Resilience's fourth launch. | Gators Advance to Final Four The No. 1 seed Florida Gators booked their plane ticket to San Antonio and the Final Four of the NCAA men's basketball tournament with an 84-79 win over No. 3 seed Texas Tech in the Elite Eight. Florida mounted an 18-4 run in the final 2:50 of the second half of Saturday's match-up to storm past the Red Raiders, overcoming a 9-point deficit. This is the first Final Four for Florida since 2014. Sophomore Thomas Haugh, who finished with 20 points and 11 rebounds, ignited the comeback with back-to-back 3-pointers. Florida guard Walter Clayton Jr. scored 13 of his 30 points in the last 5:24. | | | Flying together with our sponsor
