I was checking that pesky constitution thingie and there it was!!!!
The power to regulate immigration was specifically granted to the fed.
This means that a state or local government cannot pass any laws pertaining to immigration.
IT IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
While this judge is a looney tune leftist, even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Correct ruling.

“The DeSantis-signed statute makes it a misdemeanor for anyone in the U.S. illegally to enter or re-enter Florida.”

Trespassing in Florida. Sounds like state law.

Boy am I glad I didn't take the Con Law class you were teaching.

No one in Florida is making immigration law. The governor's law grants Florida law enforcement the right to assist the federal government in its enforcement in Florida of federal law already on the books.

These politicized judges are the ones violating the law. By assuming for themselves the right to veto the actions of state governors and legislators, whenever decisions by those bodies (which represent the people of the state) don't align with the judges' disdain for the actual rule of law.

Bottom line, this judge wishes to perpetuate Florida as a sanctuary state, safe for all illegal aliens to reside in.

From the article,

“The federal government, the Trump administration, they’ve delegated authority to all of our state law enforcement officers to go out and use federal authorities to detain and deport, and we’re [going to] continue to do that.”

Incorrect. Individuals who are in the country illegally have committed, and are committing, a crime. State law-enforcement doesn’t have to turn a blind eye simply because the feds dictate immigration policy. This is especially the case if the current administration supports the state in enforcing immigration law.

I see you signed up for thread jackass.

Florida is not making or “regulating” any immigration laws, only enforcing those already in place at the behest of the executive branch.

The Mexican Reconquistas in California have been saying what you said for decades.

When Prop 187 passed, that’s what Mariana Pfaelzer said in her opinion on the law, putting an injunction on parts of it.

So all of those people angrily shouted what you just did - “Only dee federal gobernment can make dee eemeegration law!”

And then when the federal government tried to ENFORCE those laws….they all rebelled and said we are “sanctuary states”.

IOW they want it both ways, and the claim about federal supremacy is a complete fraud.

The states are not making a law concerning naturalization, and even the federal courts have ruled that the states CAN make laws regarding immigration that are consistent with existing federal law.

And supporting those federal laws would be correct as well.
