The former governor will face former Democratic Representative Debbie Mucarsel-Powell

A 55-year-old woman was arrested in Palm Beach County on Saturday after making an online threat to shoot Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and U.S. Senators Marco Rubio and Rick Scott.

Gov. Rick Scott came to office striking a hard-line conservative stance on immigration. But trailing by 12 points in his re-election campaign, he has sought to court Hispanic voters. The new bill he signed over the weekend gives Dreamers the right to pay in-state tuition.

Florida could soon become the latest state to approve in-state tuition rates to public universities for undocumented students.

A new poll shows that a majority of Floridians support normalizing relations with Cuba, including a majority of those who live in South Florida counties with large Cuban populations. And the leading candidate for Florida governor, who once criticized opponents for traveling to Cuba, says he's for lifting the embargo.

Sixteen states allow undocumented students to pay in-state tuition for public universities and colleges, under varying conditions. The issue promises to be one of growing importance in an election year.
