Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) is proposing a number of changes to the state’s immigration laws, seeking to repeal a number of migrant protections that were once championed by state Republicans — including his own lieutenant governor.
DeSantis unveiled a new immigration package that proposes to overturn a number of legal rights granted to undocumented immigrants, marking a shift in strategy as the governor eyes a possible White House run. DeSantis has previously left several legal protections untouched while serving his first term in the governor’s mansion, but now he appears to be cracking down as he seeks to make immigration a focal point of his campaign platform.
The bill received widespread support among Republicans, including then-Gov. Rick Scott, who ultimately signed the legislation into law. “If we want to hold the line on tuition, then you have got to say, ‘You need to be a U.S. citizen living in Florida,’” DeSantis said. “Why would we subsidize a non-U.S. citizen when we want to make sure we can keep it affordable for our own people?”
