A federal judge on Monday blocked a provision of a recently enacted Florida law targeting migrants to the United States that the ACLU dubbed a "clear and brazen attack on civic participation in our democracy."

S.B. 7050, signed by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis in May, would have allowed the government to fine community organizations $50,000 for every noncitizen person who collected or submitted voter registration forms for the group, even if the individuals were legally authorized to work in the United States.


Chief U.S. District Judge Mark Walker, who presides over the Northern District of Florida, blocked the provision in a 58-page order, calling it "Florida's latest assault on the right to vote" and asserting that the provision would have "substantially interrupted" organizations' community outreach efforts.

Americans learned Wednesday morning the rate of inflation nationally has dropped dramatically, to just 3% annually, down from over 9% one year ago.

But not in Florida, which MarketWatch reports “has the highest inflation in the U.S.”

For much of the year, even before his presidential campaign officially launched, Ron DeSantis has been traveling the country, promoting his book and giving speeches in battleground states. But, as Newsweek reported in April, “some of the governor’s critics have suggested he is forgetting his own constituents in an attempt to increase his name recognition.”

Even before then, The Miami Herald Editorial Board in February asked simply, “When is Florida’s governor actually going to govern?”

The second-ranked GOP presidential candidate has been focusing on culture war issues, including so-called “parental rights” and “education” laws that target LGBTQ children and people of color, along with banning abortion and drag shows, his fight with his state’s largest employer, Disney, and chasing – if not flying – undocumented workers out of the state.
