DeSantis Campaign Press Release - Ron DeSantis: "I was the first presidential candidate say, 'If you are here on a student visa as a foreign national, you're making common cause with Hamas. I'm canceling your visa and I'm sending you home.'"

MIAMI, Fla. – During the third Republican presidential primary debate tonight, Ron DeSantis said:

"I was the first presidential candidate say, if you are here on a student visa as a foreign national, you're making common cause with Hamas. I'm canceling your visa and I'm sending you home. No questions asked. Second. I have friends here in Florida, who their kids do not feel safe even going to university campuses at all outside of the state of Florida. You have Jewish students fleeing for their lives at Cooper Union. Joe Biden should have the Department of Justice on these college campuses and holding the universities accountable for civil rights violations. When you have you should not have money going to these places. I already acted in Florida. We had a group Students for Justice of Palestine. They said they are common cause with Hamas, they said we're not just in solidarity, this is what we are we deactivated them, we're not going to use state tax dollars to fund jihad, no way. And what is Biden doing? Not only is he not helping the Jewish students who are being persecuted. He is launching an initiative to combat so-called Islamophobia. No, it's the antisemitism that is spiraling out of control. That is what we have to confront. And as President, I can tell you this we are not going to stand for this on college campuses any longer."
