FLORIDA — Travelers will be greeted with new welcome signs as they enter and exit the state. New welcome signs with "Free State of Florida" have been installed on roadways.
The Florida Department of Transportation announced the signs have been placed on major state roadways as you enter and exit the state.
The entrance sign reads, "Welcome to the free state of Florida. The Sunshine State. Governor Ron DeSantis."

The exit sign reads, "Hurry back to the free state of Florida. The Sunshine State."

After a tip from a concerned homeowner near Lake Kissimmee, the Tampa Bay 28 I-Team is pulling back the curtain on Florida’s multi-million dollar gator trade—the farms, the hunts, the designer handbags—a system where even the state takes part in the cut.
