new law that bans citizens of China and some other countries from purchasing property in large swaths of Florida can be enforced while being challenged in court, a federal judge ruled Thursday.
Judge Allen Winsor denied the American Civil Liberties Union’s request to block the state law as it seeks to overturn it. The group is representing Chinese citizens living in Florida.
That’s where we get into sunshine laws that mandate that all companies must disclose who owns them, and list that owner as part of the paperwork for all company property, and then use that to deny ownership of multiple homes/apartment complexes.
We should have such sunshine laws anyway. It would prevent a lot of issues.
