President-elect Donald Trump on Tuesday endorsed Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' call for a special legislative session on illegal immigration, despite legislative leadership calling it "premature" and "completely irresponsible." "Thank you Ron, hopefully other Governors will follow!" Trump posted on his Truth Social account.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is making one thing clear to the incoming Trump administration: We are here to help.

Trump, who endorsed the Governor’s call for a Special Session, told DeSantis he got elected to “solve” the “immigration issue,” and DeSantis said Florida is “ready, willing and able to assist” with his Special Session called for the last week of January offering a timely opportunity.
