By Associated Press -September 22, 2020 9:53 AM
Democrats slammed Ron DeSantis' proposed law as 'political fearmongering to bolster a president's reelection bid.'
The state of Florida is going to get tough on people who engage in violence during protests, Florida's Republican governor said Monday in announcing new legislation.
Gov. Ron DeSantis said his proposed legislation will impose felony-level penalties on anyone who damages property, causes injury, or destroys public property during a protest.
"Recently in our country we have seen attacks on law enforcement, we've seen disorder and tumult in many cities," DeSantis said.
Florida's Legislature won't begin its annual 60-day session until March, so it's somewhat unusual for the governor to announce a legislative proposal so far in advance. But DeSantis has the support of incoming Senate President-designate Wilton Simpson and House Speaker-designate Chris Sprowls, along with local law enforcement agencies throughout the state.
