• The Florida Senate on Wednesday is slated to take up a proposal that could help Gov. Ron DeSantis if he runs for president.
• The proposal, part of an amendment to a major elections bill (SB 7050), would exempt candidates for president or vice president from the state’s resign-to-run law.
• That law says any state officeholder who “qualifies for federal public office must resign from the office he or she presently holds if the terms, or any part thereof, run concurrently with each other.”
