[EpochTimes] Florida Senate Bill 168 bars sanctuary policies, or policies that prohibit or impede law enforcement from complying with federal immigration law or that block law enforcement agencies from communicating or cooperating with federal immigration agencies.
The Florida legislature passed the legislation in 2019 and Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican, signed it into law.
But some of the groups that supported and were involved with crafting the law, including the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR), have "been described as anti-immigrant hate groups," U.S. District Judge Beth Bloom, an Obama nominee, wrote in her 110-page ruling.
 "This involvement strongly suggests that the Legislature enacted SB 168 to promote and ratify the racist views of these advocacy groups," she added.
She can read the Legislature's minds, and they are evil.
The Community Justice Center, one of the plaintiffs, said in a statement that the ruling was "a victory for immigrants across the state of Florida."
Legal or illegal, past, present, and future.
"This law was clearly developed to encourage racial profiling, civil rights violations, isolation of immigrant communities, and unjust deportations. It did more harm for the causes of public safety than good. This should send a clear message to Gov. DeSantis and all those proponents of this racist law that they will not go unchallenged," the center said.
On the other hand -
"Yet again a federal trial court judge partially enjoins a plainly constitutional state statute," Taryn Fenske, the governor's spokesperson, said in a statement to news outlets. "We disagree with the judge's ruling and expect to win on appeal."
