Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has been locked in a contentious fight with the Republican-dominated state Legislature, which tried to strip away some immigration authority.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis promised Wednesday to veto a sweeping immigration bill, in the latest escalation of a statehouse showdown between the governor and the state's Republican legislative leadership, who have sparred over whose proposals would best carry out President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.

Gov. Ron DeSantis was in Central Florida Wednesday lashing out at the newly passed "TRUMP Act," a sweeping bill addressing illegal immigration that came from the Florida Legislature's special session last night.
