Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and state officials have intensified their criticism of U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams for blocking a law criminalizing the entry of undocumented immigrants into the state. DeSantis claimed that the judge overstepped her authority in considering whether to hold the state attorney general in contempt for not adhering to a restraining order. He argued that the law was wrongly deemed unconstitutional by Williams and maintained that she lacked jurisdiction over law enforcement related to the case. DeSantis referred to her rulings as part of a broader trend of federal judges overreaching in immigration matters.
