DeSantis picks fight over immigration law backed by his LG, ScottĬheck the clock - That was then. This is now.įive years ago - Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis first campaigned for governor touting a hard line on immigration. On the radar - When he picked Jeanette Nuñez as his lieutenant governor back in 2018, the question even back then was whether DeSantis would target one of her big legislative wins: a law that guaranteed in-state tuition rates for undocumented children of migrants if they had attended a Florida high school for three years.
It was a measure that was opposed by some Republicans at the time but passed after a strong push by both then-House Speaker Will Weatherford and then-Gov. Sidestepped - During his first term, DeSantis offered up other immigration proposals but didn’t touch the in-state tuition measure for those known as Dreamers. That changed on Thursday.īorder politics - Taking aim at President Joe Biden over the border, DeSantis rolled out new immigration proposals ahead of his expected presidential run (which is not a question of if, but when) that included repealing the in-state tuition measure. “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.Īnd more - He also said he wants to repeal separate law passed by the GOP-controlled Legislature that allows noncitizens to be admitted to the Florida Bar. And DeSantis called for expanding the use of “E-Verify” to all private employers, broadening a law he himself signed but now labels as “inadequate.”įamiliar names - Many Republicans who voted for the in-state tuition bill while they were in the Legislature are still around. There’s not only Nuñez, but Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis, Education Commissioner Manny Diaz and Agriculture Commissioner Wilton Simpson. Scott criticized Biden’s handling of immigration but then called it “unfair” to deny in-state tuition rates for someone who was brought illegally into the country at a young age.
“They didn’t come here on their own volition,” Scott told reporters during a stop in Tampa. … It’s a bill I would sign again today.”Ĭhange is constant - Of course, it should be noted that Scott himself touted his own hard line on immigration when he first ran in 2010 but then supported the in-state tuition measure when he was up for reelection four years ago.

Get in touch: WHERE'S RON? - Nothing official announced for Gov.ĭeSantis himself could have recommended repealing the measure during his first term but waited until now.
