TALLAHASSEE — The Florida House and Senate openly rebuked Gov. Ron DeSantis’ call for a special session on immigration Monday by defiantly rejecting his slate of bills, then adjourning and immediately regrouping to consider alternative legislation approved by their leaders.

DeSantis said his office was not involved in discussions about the bill that passed Tuesday, which he called “weak, weak, weak.”

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has promised to veto a sweeping immigration bill. It’s the latest escalation in a statehouse showdown between DeSantis’ office and the Republican leaders, who have sparred over whose proposals would best carry out President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown.
