Florida—House Bill 1461 is quietly moving forward, and it’s a serious threat to public protection and professional standards. This bill would eliminate over 20 licensing boards, including the Florida Board of Accountancy which oversees CPAs.

If this bill passes, there will be no accountants overseeing accountants—just general administrators making decisions in professions they may not fully understand. Please take a minute to contact your state lawmakers and urge them to vote NO on HB1461.

Would Florida even have the CPA license if that goes through? Surely that would impact reciprocity also.

Damn, I am a Florida CPA. 🫠

Went from a big firm to work for a smaller firm. The people in the smaller firm are protective of their work and are good by their work too. I no longer feel chaos or stress. I am treated with respect and my schedule is more normal. I am even working more billable hours than before, but it feels like a seamless experience. I don’t work then past 5pm or anything out of the ordinary for this time of the year. I am so grateful!

Are private companies easier to work at than public companies in accounting? We have such an accelerated close deadline at the publicly traded company I’m at now, I really hate the inflexible tight deadlines and analysis seems to drag on forever after that. We also close AP/AR very early in the month yet that doesn’t stop payments/receipts from happening so we’re constantly adjusting our accruals until the end of month. Do private companies start their close after the month actually ends?
