2026
The bill restricts services for people in Florida who are not legally in the U.S. Agencies may not license them or give homebuying aid; improper aid must be repaid and can trigger foreclosure. Adults without legal status can't collect certain state claims. Employers face big fines, license loss, full medical costs, and a felony if hiring over 50; E-Verify is required before workers' comp claims. Banks and money senders must verify status. In crashes, some out-of-state drivers are presumed at fault.
Vote Yes on this bill if you want the state to deny licenses and housing aid to unauthorized immigrants, require English-only licensing, force employers to use E-Verify with heavy penalties, restrict remittances and bank IDs, and presume certain out-of-state drivers at fault in crashes.
Organizations that support this bill may include law enforcement associations, immigration restriction advocacy groups, victims’ rights organizations, and policymakers focused on limiting public benefits to people without legal status.

Organizations that oppose this bill may include immigrant and civil rights groups, business and agriculture associations, banks and money transmitters, housing nonprofits, and insurance and road safety advocates concerned about the crash-fault presumption and English-only rules.
