THE CENTER SQUARE—The Florida Legislature responded Monday to Gov. Ron DeSantis’ call for a special session by gaveling out of his and convening its own.
Lawmakers will only take up an immigration-related bill and will not tackle the other issues called for in DeSantis’ proclamation, which included condominium regulations, electoral security reforms, and modifying the state’s ballot initiative process.
DeSantis blasted the move in a video released on social media, calling it “antics,” and called the lone bill “window dressing.”
DeSantis also said the bill would result in the state not providing meaningful assistance to federal deportation efforts, something House Speaker Daniel Perez and Senate President Ben Albritton disagreed with in a joint statement released to the media.
“This is a blatant lie about the Florida law enforcement officers who are on the front lines protecting our communities from criminal illegal immigrants each and every day,” the statement said. MORE HERE
These are Republican-led groups, right???
Looks like another Ken Paxton-type situation, MAGA vs. RINO.
It’s not just Florida that the RINO rebellion is taking place in. The RINO’s are self identifying at a very encouraging rate. I think Lindsey Graham finally stepped all the way out of the closet when while of CNN he demanded Trump be investigated for pulling John Boltons security detail.
it’s what the rino-lawyers do…see texas assembly
Let’s hope the peeps of Florida are paying attention.
