In failing to battle illegal gun trafficking, DeSantis destroys lives

A surging flow of firearms transported illegally from South Florida to Haiti is fueling gang violence, atrocities and a breakdown of order in the impoverished Caribbean nation. Rather than training his sights on gun traffickers in Florida, however, Gov. Ron DeSantis targets migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border fleeing violence caused in large measure by weapons shipped from his state.

Last year, Homeland Security Investigations announced efforts to combat gun trafficking in Florida….

In response to Governor Ron DeSantis failing to prioritize solar energy in the state’s energy plans, Florida Democrats are now lobbying the U.S. Energy Department to bypass Governor DeSantis and establish a solar program independently. Previous Chair of the House Select Committee on the Climate Crisis, U.S. Representative Kathy Castor, slammed DeSantis’ veto for putting hundreds of millions in federal funding out of reach for Floridians. Castor sent a letter to DeSantis after he vetoed programs…
