In Florida, a voter suppression law passed by the Republican-controlled Legislature Friday creates new barriers to voter registration drives, adds new restrictions to mail-in ballots and expands the power of the newly formed Office of Election Crimes and Security to investigate and prosecute alleged voting crimes. Florida lawmakers approved the legislation a day after a federal appeals court upheld another Republican-backed voter suppression law in Florida, overturning a lower court ruling that found the legislation intentionally discriminated against Black voters. Meanwhile, an amendment to the latest voter suppression bill allows Republican Governor Ron DeSantis to run for president without resigning his post. DeSantis has not yet announced he is running, though he is expected to.
