Republican lawmakers in Florida concerned about the state's new anti-immigration law and its possible economic consequences begged Latinos to not leave the state in clips from a Monday morning meeting.
The footage, which provides evidence of the law's "downstream impacts on the state economy" according to MSNBC, shows two conservative Florida legislators attempting to minimize the harm that the law, Senate Bill 1718, could cause, with one asking attendees to advise Latinos against leaving Florida.
