Florida Governor Ron DeSantis visited Surfside this morning and announced sanctions on Iranian companies and Hamas fundraising in Florida. He emphasized that Israel has the right and duty to defend itself with overwhelming force, eradicating Hamas terrorist infrastructure and networks. In response to Hamas' attack on Israel, DeSantis reminded prosecutors and law enforcement in Florida to enforce laws combating antisemitism and stated that any action supporting terrorists, including fundraising for Hamas, is not lawful in Florida. Furthermore, Florida is taking action to expand sanctions against the Iranian regime and DeSantis urges the federal government to do the same, emphasizing that making deals with Iranian Mullahs without funding terrorism is a delusion. DeSantis also proposed legislation to ensure that Florida does not do business with companies that support terrorist groups like Hamas and urges other states to follow suit.
In Florida, we don’t capitulate to state sponsors of terrorism. We sanction them. My legislative proposal ensures Florida will not do business with companies that support terrorist groups like Hamas. I urge other states to follow Florida’s lead. https://t.co/fAWrxCXiQi
Florida is standing with Israel and taking action to expand sanctions against the Iranian regime. I urge the federal government to follow suit and get rid of the delusion that you can make deals with Iranian Mullahs without funding terrorism. https://t.co/p3nuPsZQUK
