Creates a new Office of Secure Florida to administer and enforce E-Verify and employment authorization compliance, plus foreign real-property purchase rules, and funds 10 new positions for enforcement, so more state immigration enforcement.
The Office of Secure Florida, which shall be responsible for administering and enforcing: a. E-Verify and employment authorization compliance as set forth in ss. 448.09 and 448.095.
Creates a new Office of Secure Florida to administer and enforce rules on foreign principals' purchase and registration of real property, and funds positions for that enforcement, so more state regulation tied to immigration or national-security concerns.
b. The purchase and registration of real property in the State of Florida by foreign principals as set forth in ss. 692.203 and 692.204.
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill creates and funds an Office of Secure Florida inside the Department of Commerce whose explicit duties are to administer and enforce E-Verify/employment-authorization rules and restrictions on foreign-principal real-estate purchases; both provisions expand the scope of state immigration-related enforcement.
