TALHASSEE, Fla. (WFLA) — The DeSantis administration met with the governor to extend an enforcement emergency order to summarise the past six months fighting illegal immigration in Orlando on Friday.
“If you’re an undocumented person who isn’t one of those malicious people, you have the opportunity to self-deport that can legally return through the right channel. But if you don’t want to take advantage of it, we’ll be detained, we’ll save for the people, and we’ll save for the American people.”

Alongside the governor and his cabinet, Florida immigrant emperor Larry Keefe teased what could be the next step in Florida’s blueprint on the fight against illegal immigration.
In May, Keefe took a 37-page Florida blueprint in Washington, DC and informed the Department of Homeland Security that Florida has a plan and is ready to work hard to fight illegal immigration.
A few months later, the state is already preparing for Florida’s Blueprint 2.0.
“Because the situation is fluid, we’re ready to talk about 2.0. It’s adapted. We’ve learned a lot of lessons and have a blueprint of 2.0 on how to do this and how to scale this,” Keefe said.
But not everyone is on the same page. State Legislature Anna Escamani (D-Orlando) is already concerned about what has happened in the past six months.
“Given that it could be the next level, by eliminating birthright citizenship, we bring attention to the threats President Trump has already put into practice about the individuals he has already changed. That’s what President Trump has already outlined.
But even with pushbacks, the governor’s administration has highlighted the recent tragic crimes taking place in the state.
“These are things that are handled daily by two illegal foreigners who brutally sexually assaulted a seven-year-old girl yesterday in Palm Beach County. These are very realistic dangers of open border policies,” Uthmeier said.
The state has touted the last six months as a successful execution, but critics say the governor and his team must be accountable.
“We are fighting for transparency, because it is important for public moisture to get the consent of the public. That’s not what’s going on, especially as Governor DeSantis will once again extend an outdated emergency order that gives him one-sided control in order to do whatever he wants,” Rep. Eskamani said.
8 On your side, you reached into Larry Keefe’s office and got a copy of the first round of the immigration enforcement plan, and perhaps a second phase, but haven’t heard a reply about both yet.
