Florida lawmakers defied DeSantis and approved their own version of sweeping immigration reforms amid a GOP power struggle.

Gov. Ron DeSantis is in a standoff with Florida's legislative leaders that has devolved into a test of his power and influence over the state. At issue: a slate of immigration reforms that lawmakers named after President Trump and approved in place of DeSantis' own proposals.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said he’ll veto an immigration bill passed by the Republican-led legislature, dismissing it as too “weak” and accusing lawmakers of watering down efforts to crack down on illegal immigration.
