Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed two pieces of legislation that enact more protections for law enforcement as his administration continues its efforts to make Florida what St. Johns County Sheriff Robert Hardwick called “the most law-enforcement-friendly state” in the country.

“We’ve developed a track record in Florida of supporting law enforcement that is quite simply second to none,” the governor said. “We understood how important it is to have safe communities, and the way you do that is to support the people that are putting the uniform on and risking their lives to keep safe.”
