DeSantis Watch, a frequent critic of the governor, blasted DeSantis and the GOP-controlled Legislature for approving the new law.
“Florida’s workers deserve higher wages, protections from greedy corporations who profit from their labor while refusing to pay their fair share in taxes, and policies that will improve their lives, not the bottom lines of the donors who have stuffed the campaign accounts of Ron DeSantis and his Republican allies in the legislature,” Natasha Sutherland, the group’s constituencies director, said in a statement Thursday night.
