How is he (or anyone) allowed to sign a bill while not just being outside his jurisdiction, but outside the country? There has got to be some law against this, surely...
Why would it be illegal? The bill was passed in Florida and he's the governor of Florida. He doesn't have to be in the state to govern the state. If he's out of state and a hurricane hits he can declare a state of emergency from wherever he is.

He should at least remain in the country as he does so, which is the main issue I'm trying to raise (on top of the contents of the bill).

It just feels like it should be illegal.
And signed into law by DeSantis during his (no longer) secret trip to Jerusalem in Israel, which is not the USA.
John McCain was a senator of Arizona, and yet he rubbed elbows with Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi in Syria right as their civil war kicked off, and gave speeches in Ukraine. For the same reasons, I'm giving DeSantis crap because signing an aggressive bill on "combating antisemitism" doesn't seem to serve the overall interests of the citizens of Florida.
