DeSantis announces special session illegal immigration priorities: ‘Never premature to do the right thing’
WINTER HAVEN, Fla. – Gov. Ron DeSantis announced special session priorities on Wednesday in an effort to make Florida “ready to carry out President Trump’s immigration policies as soon as possible.”
DeSantis previously announced plans for a special session in an effort to assist Trump’s expected deportations of illegal immigrants, address hurricane relief, condo reform and to crack down on amendment petition fraud.
An outline of DeSantis’ plan was released as follows....................
............The governor said his team has been working with Trump officials and the plan has been “tailored” to anticipate what they know is “coming down the pipe.”
A flurry of executive orders is expected on Jan. 20, with the special session is set for Jan. 27.
DeSantis said he was “really surprised” by House Speaker Daniel Perez and Senate President Ben Albritton’s letter this week opposing a special session, calling it “premature.”
DeSantis said if Republicans don’t want to support this plan, he thinks constituents will “hold them accountable.”
“You’re basically saying after four years of Biden’s really destructive immigration and border policies that it’s somehow premature for us to act with a new President coming in. Are you kidding me?” DeSantis added.
“This is the time to act, we don’t have time to wait, and it’s never premature to do the right thing,” he said.................
