State Senator Ileana Garcia, a republican who represents Florida’s District 36, was standing at a podium in entrance of a crowd delivering an handle about environmental laws when issues took a improper flip.

Take a look at video displaying Garcia all of the sudden turning to DeSantis, who’s offscreen, and telling the governor she’s not feeling properly and wishes to sit down down.

All of a sudden, Garcia’s eyes shut and her physique tilts to at least one aspect, however earlier than she crashes to the ground, the state’s surgeon normal, Joseph Ladapo, catches her, inserting her in a chair.

Folks on the occasion bounce up from their seats and encompass Garcia, giving her water and comforting her. Nevertheless it’s not clear what’s improper together with her.

After a couple of minute, Garcia will get her second wind, stands up and goes again to the rostrum, cracking a bit joke … “Are you kidding? This was my second.” She then polishes off her speech.
