DeSantis' Presidential Ambitions Face Criticism and Controversy.

Florida lawmakers have passed a bill that would allow Governor Ron DeSantis to run for president without resigning from his current position. The bill exempts candidates for president and vice president from a state law that requires elected officials to resign if they run for another office. DeSantis has not publicly addressed the measure, but his likely 2024 campaign for president has been a topic of discussion. Democrats have criticized the bill, while allies of former President Donald Trump have targeted DeSantis' extensive travel as evidence that he should have already stepped down.
