Florida’s House Speaker says he’s open to the idea of changing state law to pave the way for a 2024 presidential run by Gov. Ron DeSantis.
During a Nov. 22 press conference, Florida House Speaker Paul Renner (R-Palm Coast) was asked if he would be interested in changing an existing state law that requires someone holding a state job to resign before running for federal office. Under current Florida law, someone like Ron DeSantis would have to resign his position as Florida’s governor within 10 days after qualifying to run for the presidency.
