Chairman's
Message
Governor DeSantis
Follows Through on Promise to Relocate Illegal Immigrants to Sanctuary
Cities
Governor
Ron DeSantis’ message to illegal immigrants who are illegally entering
our country is clear: Florida is not a sanctuary state, and Florida
will gladly facilitate the transport of illegal immigrants to
sanctuary jurisdictions. President Biden needs to do his job and
secure the border.
Governor
DeSantis is making good on his promise to relocate illegal immigrants
to places that welcome illegal immigration with open arms, such as
sanctuary cities and states, and they can bear the strain on resources
and to public safety that these open border policies bring.
Governor
DeSantis requested funds in the state budget to transport illegal
aliens to sanctuary states. It's paid for using interest from federal
funds. Meanwhile, Biden used our tax dollars to pay contractors to
smuggle thousands of illegal immigrants to our cities in the dead of
night for months, and the federal government has completely lost
control of the southern border.
Florida Ranks
Number One in Education Freedom
Governor
DeSantis highlighted Florida’s number one ranking in education freedom
at the unveiling of The Heritage Foundation’s 2022 Education Freedom
Report Card. The report lauds Florida’s dedication to education
transparency, regulatory freedom and return on investment, while
praising the state’s rejection of critical race theory and championing
of school choice and educational savings accounts.
“When other
states were locking people down and keeping their kids out of school,
we made sure kids were in school because we put their well-being
before politics,” Governor DeSantis said. “While states like
California, New York, and Illinois that denied in-person education to
their children are now suffering from plummeting educational outcomes,
Florida’s schoolchildren are thriving because we invest in our
students and we empower parents to decide what learning environment is
best for their kids.”
Throughout
his time in office, Governor DeSantis has made education a top
priority. By enshrining parents’ rights, expanding school choice,
raising teacher pay, promoting civics education, bolstering workforce
education and holding higher education accountable, Florida is leading
the way as an educational model for the nation.

Florida has been ranked the number one state for higher education for
five consecutive years by U.S. News and World Report.
“Florida
schools are some of the best in the nation, and these rankings show
that our investments in higher education and our focus on providing an
affordable, quality education are paying off,” Governor DeSantis said.
“I am especially proud that we have not allowed tuition increases
since I have been Governor, making higher education in Florida as
affordable as virtually anywhere in the nation.”

Governor DeSantis
Activates the Florida National Guard to Assist the
Department of Corrections
Governor
DeSantis activated the Florida National Guard to help the Florida
Department of Corrections reduce overtime and provide relief for
correctional officers on a temporary basis.
During the
2022 Legislative Session, Governor DeSantis approved record pay
increases to recruit and retain corrections officers. These historic
pay increases and other incentives have shown early signs of success,
with a net gain of nearly 640 officers since the conclusion of the
2022 session, compared to a net loss of more than 465 in the same
amount of time prior.

AG Moody Collects
Devastating Evidence of Biden’s Plans to Immediately Release Masses of
Illegal Immigrants into U.S.
Attorney
General Ashley Moody continues to obtain devastating evidence of
President Joe Biden’s failed immigration policies. Through aggressive
litigation efforts, AG Moody’s office obtained a memo outlining the
federal government’s plan to simply mass-release immigrants into the
United States once Title 42 is repealed.
During the
Attorney General’s Office deposition of U.S. Border Patrol Chief Raul
Ortiz, the chief testified that he had never before, during a 31-year
career, seen or issued an order like the emergency memo.
“The Biden
administration’s failed immigration policies are disastrous. Expecting
to be overrun, Biden’s Border Patrol drafted a plan to hunker down and
allow inadmissible immigrants to flood into the country,” Attorney
General Moody said. “But for the efforts of our office and other
responsible-minded, public-safety oriented attorneys general, Title 42
would have been repealed and Biden would have released untold
thousands of additional immigrants into the interior of our country —
outrageous!”

CFO Patronis: “Not
On My Watch.”
Releases Bill to Yank Licenses from IRS
Vendors Who Discriminate
Florida CFO
Jimmy Patronis released draft legislation this week for the upcoming
legislative session to take the licenses of IRS vendors who
discriminate. The legislation would establish anti-discrimination
provisions on state licensed debt collectors.
“With
87,000 new IRS personnel, there is absolutely no doubt that some of
those new agents are going to target Floridians based on their
political beliefs, and it’s likely they could hire state licensed debt
collectors to go after you,” CFO Patronis said. “Not on my watch. If a
debt collector wrongly discriminates against, or targets, Floridians
based on their political affiliation, ideology, viewpoint or conduct,
we’ll yank their license to do business in Florida.”

LG Nuñez on
Newsmax: A Pedophile is a Pedophile
Lieutenant
Governor Jeanette Núñez told Newsmax this week that the push to
rebrand pedophiles as "minor-attracted persons" is "disgusting" and
Florida won’t stand for it.
"A
pedophile is a pedophile and they're a pervert, and so that's what we
need to refer to them as," she said. "There is no wokeism in our book
that is going to allow a pedophile to be cast in a positive light.
