Ron DeSantis calls for federal agencies to be spread across US to reduce government power

Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis is calling for federal agencies to be spread out across the country in order to break up the heavy concentration of power in the nation's capital.

"Too much power has accumulated in D.C., and the result is a detached administrative state that rules over us and imposes its will on us," DeSantis said in an interview with the New York Post.

"While there are a host of things that need to be done to re-constitutionalize government, parceling out federal agencies to other parts of the country could help reduce the negative effects of this accumulation of power," he said.
