DeSantis went on to say:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<blockquote readability=\"8\">\n<p>Because we have protected their livelihoods, Floridians are confident in finding work and operating their own businesses.
