DeSantis has not yet publicly commented on the signing of this bill

I feel like a public comment should be required for Bill signing. I know it isn't. Just at this point, definitely feels like it should be.

I like the idea but I doubt it would work. Unless you want all laws signed with the comment:

bug fixes and stability improvements

Sticking it to the libs

raucous applause
