Republican legislative leaders on Monday accused the landing of lying on its bill to implement the implementation of immigration laws.
Home speaker Danny Perez supplies a stunning rebuke to the landing
Florida’s legislation applied the special session to the governor and created its own, only focused on immigration.
Republican legislative leaders on Monday have accused governor Ron Ron Zanthis of “not reading” and lying to his bill to implement the implementation of immigration laws.
Since the Senate Chairman Ben Albreton and Chamber Chairman Daniel Perez rejected his immigration proposals early in the day and presented one of their own, the landing struck his plan as “weak” and said that they “eternate” his proposal to demand everyone Law enforcement officers to work with immigration federal staff.
Their bill “Failed to put in place to a fee of state and local law enforcement agencies to cooperate entirely on the illegal implementation of immigration”, Desantis publishes X. “This means that the Florida localities will not provide meaningful assistance to the federal efforts.”
The struggle between landing and the legislature creates the opportunity to veto the implementation of immigration, a key board of the campaign of President Donald Trump, who had a United Republicans.
In a joint statement, Albrite and Perez called this “apparent lie” about their bill, called “coping and reforming an illegal migration policy” or Trump Act. They criticized the landing plan to punish law enforcement officers who did not comply with the federal orders for the implementation of immigration.
“This is a clear lie for Florida order employees who are on the first line, protecting our communities from criminal illegal immigrants every day,” says Perez, R-Mayami and Albrite, R-Wauchula.
“The law enforcement agencies are our partner, not our enemy. It is no wonder that the governor’s proposal includes criminal penalties for law enforcement. His statement clearly suggests that he does not trust the boots on earth, but we do it. “
Florida legislative leaders had called a special “premature” session
The landing calls a special Monday session to deal with the implementation of immigration in anticipation of Trump’s executive orders to accelerate deportations. Perez and Albrite criticize this move as “premature” and “irresponsible”.
They convened the session as required by the State Constitution, but quickly postponed it and convened a separate session to deal with immigration in their own way.
Department also said that part of the management bill (SB 2B/HB 1B), which moves obligations to implement immigration under the cabinet of Commissioner for Agriculture, Wilton Simpson, is unconstitutional.
“Agriculture is not known exactly for the application of immigration. So it’s almost like the fox guarding the hen’s house, “Roanis said in a video published on X.” It was bizarre. I think it was more of a sop for people who want cheap labor. This is a completely bad policy that cannot happen. “
In response, legislative leaders said it was constitutional, as Assanthis would still retain his power to call an emergency on their plan, but added his statement “abuses hard -working farm workers”.
“The legislature will not act in an impossible or dishonest manner, attacking anyone, especially our law enforcement agencies,” Perez and Albrite said.
“Unlike others, the legislature is not interested in the misleading or attack of Floridians, especially the Florida Order. Our goal is to work with President Trump. Anyone who says something else is not reading the bill, not to read the executive orders, or just not to tell the truth. “
Towards the end of Monday, Trump did not invest in his clash about his story on the social media of truth. On January 13, Trump published for the governor’s call for a special session: “Thank you Ron, we hope that other managers will follow!”
