🔥DeSantis eliminates 'squatters' rights' in Florida, gives power to cops to remove offenders
Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed legislation into law Wednesday that eliminates squatters’ rights in the Sunshine State and increases penalties against offenders.
"You are not going to be able to commandeer somebody's private property and expect to get away with it. We are in the state of Florida ending the squatter scam once and for all," DeSantis said from Orlando on Wednesday during a press conference on the signing.
The law will take effect on July 1. DeSantis noted ahead of the signing that he believes Florida is the first state in the nation to take squatting issues head-on.
