TALLAHASSEE, Florida.<\/strong> -<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>Ayer, el gobernador de Florida, Ron DeSantis, promulg\u00f3 la ley SB 4B (Proyecto de Ley Senatorial 4B), una expansi\u00f3n innecesaria y perjudicial de la autoridad de la Oficina del Fiscal Estatal ("OSP") para investigar y procesar ciertos delitos relacionados con la votaci\u00f3n, las actividades de petici\u00f3n y el registro de votantes.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

La SB 4B se present\u00f3 r\u00e1pidamente y se convirti\u00f3 en ley despu\u00e9s de que varios tribunales de Florida concluyeran que la OSP carec\u00eda de la <\/span>autoridad para procesar a algunas de las 20 personas con condenas pasadas que fueron arrestadas en agosto pasado, despu\u00e9s de investigaciones de la Oficina de Delitos Electorales y Seguridad, por lo que parecen ser errores honestos sobre su elegibilidad para votar<\/span>En lugar de arreglar el complejo e inmanejable sistema de Florida para que las personas con condenas por delitos graves anteriores determinen su elegibilidad para votar, esta nueva ley le da al gobernador DeSantis y a sus aliados pol\u00edticos m\u00e1s autoridad para procesar presuntas faltas de conducta electoral que un fiscal local podr\u00eda no estar dispuesto a procesar porque la evidencia no demuestra que un individuo haya violado la ley deliberadamente.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Una coalici\u00f3n de grupos no partidistas de derechos civiles y electorales, entre ellos NAACP Florida, ACLU of Florida, Common Cause Florida, All Voting is Local Action, Latino Justice PRLDEF, League of Women Voters of Florida, Legal Defense Fund y Brennan Center for Justice at NYU Law firmaron <\/span>testimonio conjunto<\/a>\u00a0oponi\u00e9ndose al proyecto de ley.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

La NAACP de Florida, la ACLU de Florida, Common Cause Florida, la Liga de Mujeres Votantes de Florida, el Fondo de Defensa Legal y el Centro Brennan para la Justicia de la Facultad de Derecho de la Universidad de Nueva York respondieron a la firma de ayer con la siguiente declaraci\u00f3n:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n

\u201cAnte las derrotas en los tribunales, el gobernador Ron DeSantis y la legislatura de Florida han decidido cambiar las reglas ellos mismos. La firma de ayer marca un nuevo m\u00ednimo, con una mayor\u00eda de legisladores estatales, a pesar de los argumentos convincentes en contra del proyecto de ley por parte de la minor\u00eda, otorgando a DeSantis y su administraci\u00f3n m\u00e1s autoridad para procesar a los floridanos con condenas pasadas que han cometido errores honestos sobre su elegibilidad para votar. No son los votantes los que tienen la culpa. Es el estado de Florida el que cre\u00f3 este problema en reacci\u00f3n a la aprobaci\u00f3n de la Enmienda 4 por parte de los votantes. La administraci\u00f3n DeSantis y la legislatura estatal hicieron que fuera casi imposible para las personas con condenas pasadas determinar su elegibilidad para votar y el estado contin\u00faa neg\u00e1ndose a proporcionar cualquier orientaci\u00f3n significativa para garantizar que estos floridanos puedan averiguar si son elegibles para votar.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

En cambio, los l\u00edderes estatales han redoblado su infructuosa b\u00fasqueda de fraude electoral generalizado, algo inexistente, como lo demuestran los propios datos de la Oficina de Delitos y Seguridad Electoral. Esta nueva ley ataca injustamente a los votantes con antecedentes penales, en particular a los floridanos negros, quienes se han visto desproporcionadamente afectados por los procesos judiciales liderados por la Administraci\u00f3n DeSantis.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

\u201cEstamos profundamente preocupados por las consecuencias: la ley solo intimidar\u00e1 a\u00fan m\u00e1s a los votantes negros y latinos, correr\u00e1 el riesgo de que se sigan procesando a los floridanos con condenas pasadas por su incapacidad para navegar en un sistema dif\u00edcil de navegar para determinar su elegibilidad para votar y privar\u00e1 a los votantes elegibles con condenas pasadas de participar en nuestra democracia\u201d.<\/span><\/p>"}}]},"yoast_head":"\nResponse to DeSantis Signing Election Crimes Law Expanding Statewide Prosecutor’s Power to Target People with Past Convictions -
