This week on The Florida Roundup, we discussed Governor Ron DeSantis’ first few days in office – and what lies ahead – with Jim Saunders, Executive Editor for News Service of Florida and Ana Ceballos, who covers state government and politics for the USA TODAY NETWORK.

We also took a closer look at a USA TODAY NETWORK - FLORIDA investigation into nursing home neglect and abuse deaths with Melanie Payne, one of the reporters covering the story, and William Scott, an attorney specializing in Florida elder abuse cases.
