“We have seen things in Miami Beach. We have resources available. We want to work proactively with the local jurisdictions,” DeSantis said.
DeSantis said local law enforcement counts on the support of state agencies to make sure that spring breakers don’t get in the way of businesses or impact “the quality of life of our residents.”
After his failed Republican presidential primary run against former President Donald Trump, DeSantis also continued to attack President Joe Biden as not being tough enough on immigration.
