Ron DeSantis (R-FL) posted a video Saturday \u2064offering his thoughts on\u200b the proposed Senate deal to conditionally shut down the \u200bsouthern border.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The \u200bFlorida governor passionately criticized the bipartisan agreement,\u2064 labeling it a &#8220;farce&#8221; and arguing that President Joe Biden already possesses the authority to close the border. DeSantis\u2064 emphasized that Biden could declare it a national emergency and halt the invasion \u2062completely if he desired, but instead, he chooses to\u200d allow people to enter.<\/p>\n<p>This deal is part of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/senate-passes-45-day-stopgap-measure-in-time-to-avert-government-shutdown\/\" title=\"Senate approves 45-day stopgap measure, avoids government shutdown.\">larger\u2063 spending bill<\/a> that includes aid for\u2063 Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. DeSantis, along with other conservatives, opposes the agreement, claiming that \u2064it would permit up to 1.8\u200d million illegal immigrants to enter the United States each year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The appropriate number of illegal\u200d entries is zero,&#8221; DeSantis asserted. &#8220;Our policy should reflect that we do not want people coming to this country\u200d illegally.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Speaker Mike Johnson Joins the Criticism<\/h3>\n<p>Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), who previously\u2062 stated that the agreement would be &#8220;dead on arrival&#8221; in the House\u2063 of Representatives, released a statement echoing some of DeSantis&#8217;s concerns. Johnson highlighted that the Immigration\u2064 and Nationality Act, combined with recent Supreme Court\u200d rulings, grants Biden &#8220;ample authority&#8221; to suspend the entry of aliens as he deems necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Biden defended the deal, referring to it as the &#8220;toughest and fairest \u200cset of reforms to secure the border we&#8217;ve ever\u2062 had in our country.&#8221; He\u200b pledged to exercise his power to\u2063 close the border on\u2064 the day he signs \u2063the agreement into law. However, DeSantis remains \u2063unconvinced,\u2064 accusing\u2062 Biden of lacking the will and political philosophy to solve the problem. DeSantis believes that the country is growing weaker as the issue persists, emphasizing the need for strong leadership.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Click here to read more from The Washington Examiner.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><script>\n(function() {\n  var g = window;\n  g.googletag = g.googletag || {};\n  g.googletag.cmd = g.googletag.cmd || [];\n  g.googletag.cmd.push(function() {\n    g.googletag.pubads().setTargeting(\"has-featured-video\", \"true\");\n  });\n})();\n<\/script><\/p>\n<p><script>\nvar _bp = _bp || [];\n_bp.push({\n  \"div\": \"Brid_1539629\",\n  \"obj\": {\n    \"id\": \"27789\",\n    \"width\": \"1280\",\n    \"height\": \"720\",\n    \"stickyDirection\": \"below\",\n    \"video\": \"1539629\"\n  }\n});\n<\/script>  <\/p>\n<h2> What economic impact\u2062 does <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/hundreds-of-sheriffs-call-on-biden-to-finish-trumps-border-wall-stop-gangs-guns-dangerous-drugs-entering-u-s\/\" title=\"Hundreds Of Sheriffs Call On Biden To Finish Trump\u2019s Border Wall, Stop \u2018Gangs, Guns, Dangerous Drugs\u2019 Entering U.S.\">unchecked illegal immigration<\/a> have on local economies and American \u200bworkers<\/h2>\n<p><span>  N order to protect national security and American citizens.

He argued that this would only delay decisive action, giving more time for potential threats to enter the country. The governor emphasized that the border crisis needs immediate attention and should not be subject \u200bto conditional measures.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, DeSantis \u200ccriticized the lack of enforcement of immigration laws by the Biden administration. He noted that the current policies allow for the release of illegal immigrants into American communities\u200b without\u2063 proper vetting or\u2063 COVID-19 testing, potentially endangering public health and safety. The governor asserted that it is the duty of the federal government to enforce \u200dimmigration laws and protect its citizens.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, DeSantis highlighted the economic impact of an unsecured border. He stated that unchecked illegal\u200b immigration \u2064puts a strain\u200c on local\u2063 economies, as resources are diverted to support undocumented immigrants. He argued that by allowing undocumented immigrants to enter and work in the country without proper authorization, the Biden \u200cadministration is undermining the livelihoods of American workers and creating \u2063an unfair advantage\u2064 for businesses\u2063 that employ cheap labor.<\/p>\n<p>In\u2064 his video statement, DeSantis \u200durged the Biden administration \u2064to\u200b take immediate and decisive \u2063action to secure the southern border. He emphasized the need for increased border patrol, enhanced technology, and a\u2063 comprehensive immigration policy that prioritizes the safety and well-being \u200cof American citizens. He called on the federal government to take a tough stance on illegal immigration, imposing consequences for those who break the \u200blaw and enforcing existing immigration policies.<\/p>\n<p>The Florida governor concluded his statement by expressing his commitment to protecting the sovereignty and security of the United States. \u200bHe vowed to continue fighting for the rights of Floridians and all Americans, demanding strong and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/tony-gonzales-slams-biden-extending-tps-for-500000-venezuelan-migrants-hes-encouraged-illegal-migrants-to-come\/\" title=\"Tony Gonzales criticizes Biden for extending TPS to 500,000 Venezuelan migrants, claiming it encourages illegal migration.\">effective \u2064immigration policies<\/a> that prioritize the well-being of the nation.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, Governor Ron\u2062 DeSantis\u2064 of Florida strongly criticized the proposed Senate deal to conditionally \u2064shut down the southern border. He argued\u200c that President Biden already possesses the \u200cauthority to take decisive action and close the border without delay.
