DeSantis Signs Powerful New Law – He Just Stopped 1 Jaw-Dropping Scam Against Everyday Citizens

With illegal immigration exploding on the border—and crime growing in blue cities and states—a new epidemic is afflicting hard-working Americans. Both migrants and law-breaking Americans are invading homes and refusing to leave.

Squatting has been a problem for a long time. But now, people are exploiting the law to occupy houses they do not know and for which they are not paying rent.

This problem is becoming very dire in states like California and New York, where liberal lawmakers refuse to fix it. But in Florida, the governor just signed a law that will have liberals outraged. But every property owner can now breathe a sigh of relief.

From Daily Wire:
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill into law on Wednesday that empowers residents in the state to have law enforcement immediately evict squatters from homes instead of having the situation devolve into a drawn out legal battle, and increases the criminal penalties against squatters…

“Just a few days ago, two squatters in New York City allegedly murdered the property owner when she confronted them for being in her apartment illegally,” he continued. “In fact, we even have illegal aliens taking to social media, instructing other foreigners how to come into this country and commandeer property.”

Gov. DeSantis signed into law a bill that makes it easier for homeowners to remove squatters from their property. The bill cuts down the red tape that once bogged down the process. Residents can have police arrest people occupying their property if they cannot prove they are leasing it or paying rent.

This is a huge win for American homeowners. Squatting has been a massive problem for many years, but in this lawless age of Joe Biden, it has become even worse. Democrats refuse to side on homeowners because they view it as a “social justice” issue.

Homeowners, in their minds, are the “rich” elite abusing the poor. And squatters are victims who deserve protection. Yet this view has allowed people to invade homes, refuse to pay rent, and destroy property. Law-abiding homeowners are treated like villains, as squatters have free rein.

Now, it looks as if other states will follow Florida’s lead. Democrats might be growing terrified that one of their social justice golden calves is about to be slaughtered. Even voters in blue states might push for similar laws, giving conservatives an opportunity to gain ground.

Key Takeaways:

  • Florida passed a law making squatting a criminal offense.
  • Police can arrest squatters who do not provide a lease or proof of rent.
  • This comes as blue states face a squatting epidemic.
