The answer is none because it is all voluntary — the feds can’t commandeer state and local officials to enforce federal laws.

Florida will obviously accept the deputization and we are seeking — in the upcoming special session — to have state law impose duties on the locals to…

@RonDeSantis My main concern is how much power does the federal government gain over our local law enforcement by doing so.

The statement engages in public discourse by discussing the federal government's potential actions regarding state and local cooperation with immigration enforcement, a significant public policy issue.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not directly harm others with words or actions, but it suggests punitive measures against officials, which could be seen as coercive. [-1]
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement does not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech, but it implies holding officials criminally liable, which could be seen as undermining their dignity. [-1]
  3. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement does not engage in personal attacks but suggests a punitive approach rather than constructive dialogue with dissenting states. [-1]
  4. Principle 7:
    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
    The statement engages in public discourse responsibly by discussing policy levers, but the tone suggests a coercive approach rather than a collaborative one.
