Florida's Republican Governor Ron DeSantis has unveiled plans to allocate land in South Florida for a future presidential library dedicated to President Donald Trump.
This initiative aims to honor the 45th and 47th President of the United States, reflecting his significant contributions to the nation.
According to One America News, DeSantis announced on Tuesday his intention to propose the allocation of a 2.63-acre site in Miami-Dade County for the Donald J. Trump Presidential Library. This proposal will be presented at the Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Trust Fund meeting scheduled for September 30th.
"President Trump has achieved results for the American people and made a lasting impact on our nations history," DeSantis stated. He further emphasized Florida's role in advancing the President's agenda, expressing the state's honor in potentially hosting the library. The proposed site is currently a parking lot for Miami-Dade College.
State Attorney General James Uthmeier expressed his support for the proposal on X, highlighting the significance of preserving Trump's legacy. "It is the greatest political comeback story in American history," Uthmeier remarked, underscoring Florida's pride in being part of this historical endeavor.
Florida has solidified its position as a bastion of conservative leadership. President Trump, who changed his voter registration from New York to Florida in 2019, frequently convenes with allies at his Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach.
His strong connection with the state's Republican base was evident when he secured Florida by a 13-point margin in the November elections.
