DeSantis Announces Special Session to Align Florida with Trump’s Immigration Agenda

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has called for a special legislative session to implement President-elect Donald Trump’s immigration policies during his first 100 days in office. Speaking at a press conference, DeSantis announced that the session would begin the week of January 27, shortly after Trump’s inauguration on January 20.

“With the next president taking office on January 20, we expect executive orders to be issued immediately following the swearing-in and inaugural address,” DeSantis said. “We need to act quickly to align with the new administration’s priorities.”

DeSantis emphasized his authority to suspend officials who fail to uphold their responsibilities, warning that state and local leaders in Florida must support federal immigration enforcement. “In order to assist the Trump administration effectively, we need legislation that imposes additional responsibilities on local officials and provides funding for enforcement efforts,” he stated.

The governor also stressed the importance of accountability, vowing to enforce Florida’s anti-sanctuary policies and eliminate incentives that might encourage undocumented immigration into the state.

DeSantis plans to secure funding for state and local officials, including sheriffs, to strengthen immigration enforcement. He highlighted the necessity of providing resources to ensure effective collaboration with federal authorities.

The special session signals a potential shift in the working relationship between DeSantis and Trump. Though initially close allies during Trump’s first administration, their relationship soured after DeSantis challenged Trump in the Republican presidential primary. However, tensions have eased since Trump secured the nomination last year.

Trump is expected to issue several executive orders on his first day in office. According to Stephen Miller, Trump’s deputy chief of staff, one of these orders will aim to “seal the border,” marking a significant step in the president-elect’s immigration crackdown.
