The Palm Bay Republican said his GOP Primary win for Congress shows there is life after crossing the Governor.

The Tackling and Reforming Unlawful Migration Policy Act, also known as the TRUMP Act, passed Tuesday night in a special session called by DeSantis. The Republican governor called the immigration bill "weak" when he announced his intention to veto the legislation.

Florida state Sen. Randy Fine (R) won the Republican primary in the state’s 6th Congressional District on Tuesday, making him a favorite to win the general election for the district’s U.S.

The veto pledge capped a dramatic few days in which Republican legislators publicly criticized Gov. Ron DeSantis and portrayed themselves as truer allies of President Trump.

Sen. Jason Pizzo, D-Miami, noted Tuesday that DeSantis didn’t hold accountable a state road contractor after one of its employees, a Honduran immigrant in the country illegally, killed Pinellas Sheriff’s Deputy Michael Hartwick at a construction site.

The act would name Florida's Commissioner of Agriculture, the state's chief immigration officer, who would oversee immigration enforcement and be the state's liaison to the federal government.

Democrats and Republicans have elected their candidates for the April 1 special election to fill the seat vacated by Michael Waltz.

Ultimately, Republicans shut down multiple amendments trying to take the tuition-related provisions out of the bill. Republican Sens. Jennifer Bradley, of Fleming Island, and Alexis Calatayud, of Miami, did vote with Democrats for an amendment on tuition filed by Jones.

Fine decided to run in the district, even though he does not currently live there, after receiving an enthusiastic endorsement from Trump.

Space Perspective was issued a five-day eviction summons Friday for the company's high-altitude balloon manufacturing factory and office facilities at Space Coast Regional Airport in Titusville after falling behind $90,295 in unpaid base rent in recent months, court records indicate.

DeSantis' statements come after the legislature rebuked him by gaveling out a special session on immigration DeSantis called where he wanted to pass his own legislative package.
