Florida AG says it’s ‘not rocket science’ why so many Americans are flocking to Sunshine StateFlorida Attorney General Ashley Moody said it's "not rocket science" why so many Americans are moving to Florida, arguing that people look to the Sunshine State and understand that "leadership matters."
"It's not rocket science. I mean, people are watching and they understand that leadership matters. We don't just watch as things break down or things aren't going right. We do something about it," Moody told Sean Duffy on Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures."
"When we saw people not respecting cops and other folks defunding their police, we gave them raises. When we saw a rash of folks rushing into stores and committing mob thefts, we did something about it. We made it easier to prosecute those people," she continued.
Moody was responding to questions on why so many Americans are fleeing Democratic-led states to places such as Florida in recent years.
Census Bureau data from earlier this year found that New York lost 319,000 people between July of 2020 and the same month of 2021, while California lost 261,000 during the same time period. Florida, meanwhile, grew by 211,000 residents during that time period. ....................
