Frank Russo Unveils Ellis Island Promise Immigration Framework
Frank Russo, independent candidate for Governor of Florida, introduced his 'Ellis Island Promise' immigration framework. The plan emphasizes public safety by targeting violent criminals and cartel members while protecting law-abiding immigrants who contribute to the economy. Russo's proposal includes enforcing laws against dangerous offenders but differentiating them from working families actively pursuing legal status. He also calls for federal work authorization solutions that allow eligible individuals to continue employment during immigration case processing, advocating for accountability through background checks and identity verification. The framework aims to preserve Florida’s workforce in key sectors like construction, hospitality, agriculture, and services by avoiding indiscriminate removals of workers. Russo highlights the importance of balancing law enforcement with compassion while addressing government delays that affect families.
