Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida has intensified his stance on illegal immigration, with recent actions including the signing of legislation aimed at preventing illegal immigrants from obtaining driver's licenses in the state. DeSantis criticized the Biden administration for what he perceives as a failure to enforce immigration laws, citing a case where an individual flown in from Haiti is charged with assaulting a 15-year-old with disabilities in Massachusetts. DeSantis's administration has also been proactive in intercepting illegal immigrants, with over 670 vessels stopped since January 2023, carrying approximately 13.5K individuals. In a notable operation, a boat carrying 25 Haitian migrants, along with firearms, drugs, and night vision gear, was intercepted off Florida's coast. The migrants were turned over to the Coast Guard for deportation. DeSantis warned deported illegal immigrants who return and commit crimes in Florida that they would face severe consequences, stating 'You Are Going to Regret' Coming to Florida.

In Florida, we don’t allow illegal aliens to get drivers licenses and we won’t recognize drivers licenses that sanctuary jurisdictions give to illegal aliens. By increasing the penalties for driving without a valid license, the law I signed today is another tool to help law… https://t.co/NEIZxTbsU7
