DeSantis asks for millions of dollars more to fight lawsuits

Gov. Ron DeSantis is asking Florida state legislators to approve millions of dollars to help his office and other state agencies fight lawsuits stemming from new laws and executive orders.

According to his budget proposal, which was unveiled last week, DeSantis is seeking to increase the litigation spending for the Executive Office of the Governor from $1.6 million last year to $4 million next year.

A note in the budget proposal indicates the money would come from the General Fund, and it would be used "to acquire legal representation for lawsuits related to litigation expenses."
