Gov. Ron DeSantis' planned legislative proposal to tackle illegal
immigration in Florida could be most transformative state-led plan ever, a Florida state senator told Fox News.
The overhaul will increase penalties for human smuggling and falsifying documents and requires state employers to confirm their employees' legal status. It also includes proposals on health care spending, voting and out-of-state IDs.
"I believe that this is going to be the largest, most comprehensive,
landmark state-led anti-illegal immigration bill ever passed in the United States," Florida state Sen. Blaise Ingoglia, who is working on the
proposal with DeSantis, told Fox News. "It should be the blueprint for
other states to pass so we can all push back as states on the federal government, the Biden administration, Secretary Mayorkas and their open
border policies."

DeSantis, while announcing the immigration plan, said Florida "won’t turn
a blind eye to the dangers of Biden’s border crisis" and that his administration would "do everything in our power to protect the people of Florida from what's going on at the border and the border crisis."
The proposal also aims to track how much the health care industry spends
on illegal immigrants.

"We as a state of Florida really need to get our hands around the dollar amount, the magnitude of the amount of money that Floridians are paying
for illegal immigrants that go through the emergency rooms," Ingoglia, a Republican, told Fox News. "If this bill should pass, hospitals, any
hospital that receives state Medicaid dollars, will be required to ask the question upon intake whether they are here in the country legally or illegally,"
Health care for illegal immigrants in Florida during the last fiscal year
cost over $310 million, according to state data.
Ingoglia also said DeSantis' plan would invalidate all out-of-state IDs
for illegal immigrants. Law enforcement would proceed as though the
individual had no ID at all.
Over 1.1 million driver's licenses have been given to illegal migrants in California since 2014, according to state data. Additionally, California
Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a law in September allowing illegal immigrants to
get state IDs.
"So it's stuff like this plus more that this state of Florida is looking
at doing to really force the federal government to finally fixing this problem," Ingoglia told Fox News.

Housing, food, education and healthcare would be a lot cheaper for the
American people if the Democratic Party didn't waste American resources on
the estimated 25-30 million illegals in the country.

Republican states simply need to say all illegals are going to be sent
back to where they came from.
This will cause 2 things to happen.
1) It will force all these illegals in RED states to flee into Democrat
held states.
2) It will destroy Democrat held states and cities. We’ve seen what
happens when a few buses of illegals were sent to NY. If this was
implemented there will be MILLIONS of illegals flooding into these cities!
