Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has announced that he will pay unvaccinated police officers from other states $5,000 if they relocate to the Sunshine State to work, as cops across the U.S. continue to leave their posts in droves over COVID vaccine mandates.'We're actually actively working to recruit out-of-state law enforcement, because we do have needs in our police and our sheriff's departments,' the governor told Fox News on Sunday.'In the next legislative session, I'm going to hopefully sign legislation that gives a $5,000 bonus to any out-of-state law enforcement that relocates in Florida,'

All good cops relocate to the South. Keep the mudbloods in blue states.

Governor DeSantis made no mention of vaccinated or unvaccinated cops. The Daily Mail makes up stories to create sensationalism and revenue.

#4 -- TRUE -- but that is precisely the point, unvaxxed and vaxxed alike are invited to come to Florida. He's so dang smart - outmaneuvers the Left at every turn.

Texas should recruit them all to arrest trespassers at the border.

Big city cops aren't going south for five grand...that's chump change compared to their current salary plus whatever Florida may pay them. And then let's talk overtime, etc. That 5Gs won't even cover the move expenses. More grandstanding...

Move to Florida from trash dumps like Chicago, New York, Minneapolis and Portland and get paid five grand to do it. Who would want to do that?

With all those with means, W2's, 1099's, retirement pensions and investment income bailing out of fascist declining quality of life blue states the police will be easily supported by the tax base growth and will be safer as the fascist AG's release so many psychos out to prey on the masked servants of the totalitarian states.

Ron DeSantis is a rock star. The best young upstart we've seen in the conservative movement in decades.

The brilliant Governor DeSantis offers not just $5,000 to move. I agree that's chump change to many. But, with that offer he signals something way more important. He signals a governor that is willing to support his police; a governor that is willing to support all his workers. He signals that he is a governor that supports ALL residents of his state, not just the vaccinated, or whatever other divisive tactics the left will use to separate citizens. Folks, that's not grandstanding, it's leadership, something in very short supply today.

Go for it!!...governor desantis is a true leader...it's reassuring to know there are still tough American men out there who aren't afraid of leading and doing what's right for Americans...I see his future in the White House coming round the bend...he's just what America needs...a leader who cares about the people of this country...and not afraid of the Washington establishment and the hitler youth...soros...and crooked Hillary's attempts at being in the political game is a joke...she's as pathetic as Mr. Magoo in front of the cameras....

Imagine having a governor who loves this country is creative, smart and puts in a 12 hour day with a small family at home. He's a role model for anyone in a leadership position.

1. The $5,000 is a one time bonus to move to Florida. It is not part of their regular pay. That is between them and the city they are employed with.
2. The only problem moving to Florida right now is the availability of affordable housing. The New Yorkers have driven the price of homes through the roof. I could sell my very nice home here and cash in all my ira’s and still not be able to afford a good home there. Too bad.

#8, perhaps you are unaware that Florida has NO STATE INCOME TAX. That'd be about 6.6% of their income in NY state. Say $55-100K salary range for cops, that is $3,600 to $6,600 less taxes alone. And depending on where they move to, home prices can be far less and home taxes far less, too. Most cost of living items are far lower in Florida than in most of the NE.
