FTA:
By signing his latest fascist legislation which criminalizes undocumented immigrants for…well… just being in Florida, De Santis has effectively chased out virtually the entire undocumented poplulation of the state, which means more than 80% of the construction workers, and nearly 100% of the agricultural workers. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. It cascades from there. I just spent half an hour on tiktok, for an old timer like me that’s a bit of a challenge, but it was worth it. In that short amount of time, I saw latin truckers blocking entire highways with their boycotting and refusing to deliver loads in Florida, or to take loads out. They aren’t even undocumented, that’s just the solidarity folks.
not only is desantis screwing everything up for his florida residents, i saw a news article where his fellow florida republican representatives were basically holding meetings with residents to say his e-verify bill doesn’t have any teeth and it’s only meant to scare xD what a clown. turning on his own party members in the state, too. classic gop move
edit: here’s an article like the one i described, https://www.cltampa.com/news/the-bill-is-100-supposed-to-scare-you-gop-lawmakers-explain-floridas-new-immigration-law-to-hispanic-leaders-15773022
