America First Congressman Matt Gaetz Comes to DeSantis’ Defense by Attacking Establishment Republicans

Republican Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has made implementing E-Verify a major policy point of his gubernatorial administration.

As VDare reported, however, he faces considerable challenges in seeing this program through.

One of them being opposition from within his party.

For example, Republican Senate Bill Galvano opposes E-Verify because it supposedly has a negative impact on business.

Galvano stated last month, “I don’t support having the requirement that everyone (use) E-Verify. It’s putting an additional responsibility on non-government officials.”

The Senate President’s opposition to E-Verify will likely lead to a watered-down E-Verify bill.

Another Republican state senator put forward a bill that would only limit mandatory E-Verify usage to government agencies and contractors. Private companies would not be covered under this mandate.

This would gut DeSantis’ original plan, since it’s primarily private companies who hire illegal immigrants, not the government.

Galvano’s weak-kneed establishment ways don’t just end there.

BLP covered how Galvano wants to pass gun control and broaden the scope of background checks in Florida. He has also received money from Michael Bloomberg-funded gun control groups as well.

Galvano is as establishment as they come.

The America First stalwart and upstart Congressman Matt Gaetz isn’t pleased with Galvano’s political shenanigans.
