Florida Governor Ron DeSantis used his annual State of the State message to Florida legislators to boast of culture war victories and preview policies that would form the backbone of a 2024 presidential campaign should he choose to run for president.
In his remarks on Tuesday, Mr DeSantis told the Florida legislature — which opened a 60-day session that day — that Florida’s population growth over the last few years is due to his decision to reject public health experts advice and take on broader cultural fights over public school and higher education content.
