Promise Details
In his 2025 State of State and other statements, DeSantis declared that Florida made entering the state illegally a crime and empowered state/local law enforcement to assist in immigration enforcement. He claimed Florida would not remain passive.
What was done
2025 legislation criminalized unlawful entry into Florida and expanded cooperation between state and federal authorities. The law increased penalties for transporting or sheltering undocumented migrants and funded the state relocation program. While Supreme Court order blocked parts of the Florida law championed by DeSantis, the immigration issue remains a winning proposition for the governor.
