The Mexican president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, asked this Monday not to vote for Governor Ron DeSantis, a Republican candidate for the presidency of the United States, before the new anti-immigrant law that came into force last Saturday in Florida, a state that he governs.
“We are against the immigration reform of DeSantis, the governor of Florida, who is against immigrants, not a vote for DeSantis, he who does not love his country does not want his mother, not a vote for those who despise migrants,” said the Mexican president in his daily press conference.
López Obrador referred to Law SB 1718 in Florida, promoted by DeSantis, which establishes restrictions on undocumented immigrants and could generate discrimination based on “racial profiling” that affects other people.
The new regulation requires companies with more than 25 employees to use a program to verify the immigration status of each one and makes traveling in a car across state lines with an undocumented person a felony punishable by up to 15 years. from prison.
