The Republican-led Legislature has just approved a bill that clarifies he can run for president in 2024 while still keeping his current position. This is a major win for DeSantis, who is widely expected to make a bid for the White House in the next election.<\/p>\n<h3>What the Bill Entails<\/h3>\n<p>The bill, known as SB 7050, includes a provision that exempts anyone running for president or vice president from the existing \u201cresign-to-run\u201d requirements. This means that DeSantis can continue serving as governor while also pursuing a presidential campaign. The bill has already passed the Florida Senate and was approved by the Florida House in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/sen-joe-manchin-threatens-to-derail-bidens-1-9-trillion-aid-bill-unless-it-receives-bipartisan-support\/\" title=\"Sen. Joe Manchin Threatens To Derail Biden\u2019s .9 Trillion Aid Bill Unless It Receives \u2018Bipartisan\u2019 Support\">party-line vote<\/a> of 76-34.<\/p>\n<h3>What the Amendment Means<\/h3>\n<p>Some have speculated that the bill was specifically designed to pave the way for DeSantis\u2019 presidential bid. However, Florida Senate President Kathleen Passidomo has stated that the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/florida-legislature-clears-way-for-desantis-to-run-for-president-without-resigning\/\" title=\"Florida Legislature Clears Way for DeSantis to Run for President Without Resigning\">amendment simply clarifies current law<\/a> and does not change the process for nominating candidates for president and vice president. She explained that presidential and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/we-either-have-laws-or-we-dont-have-laws-california-violated-its-election-laws-as-well-results-are-likely-invalid\/\" title=\"We Either Have Laws or We Don\u2019t Have Laws: California Violated Its Election Laws As Well \u2013 Results Are Likely Invalid\">vice presidential candidates<\/a> do not have to qualify and are decided by their respective political parties at national conventions.<\/p>\n<h3>What This Means for DeSantis<\/h3>\n<p>With this bill now headed to the governor\u2019s desk for his signature, DeSantis can officially begin planning his presidential campaign without worrying about resigning from his current position. This is a major advantage for him, as it allows him to continue building his political profile and gaining experience as governor while also pursuing his presidential ambitions.<\/p>\n<h3>Final Thoughts<\/h3>\n<p>It will be interesting to see how DeSantis\u2019 presidential campaign unfolds in the coming years. With this bill now in place, he has a clear path to the White House and can focus on building his platform and gaining support from voters across the country.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Florida Legislature approves bill allowing Gov.
