The U.S. Supreme Court docket on Wednesday left in place a decrease court docket resolution that blocked a part of a Florida legislation making it a criminal offense for undocumented immigrants to cross into the state. The statute imposed numerous obligatory jail phrases for violating the legislation.

Whereas Wednesday’s Supreme Court docket order blocked elements of the Florida legislation championed by DeSantis, the immigration concern stays a profitable proposition for the governor. In Could, he introduced that in collaboration with the U.S. Division of Homeland Safety, Florida led a “first-of-its-kind statewide operation” arresting greater than 1,000 undocumented immigrants in lower than per week.
