.GovRonDeSantis says funds are in place to bus illegal migrants out of his state
A spokesperson for DeSantis' office clarified to Fox News Digital that the transport of illegal immigrants out of Florida was included in the governor's recent budget recommendations. The budget proposed by the State Legislature includes $12 million for the Florida Department of Transportation to remove illegal immigrants from Florida and relocating them.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis addresses a joint session of a legislative session, Tuesday, Jan. 11, 2022, in Tallahassee, Fla. "The legislature delivered on this priority, along with many of the governor’s other priorities to protect Floridians from the harmful impacts of the Biden border crisis," a spokesperson for DeSantis said.
DeSantis has proposed Delaware or Martha’s Vineyard as a destination for such migrants, but his office explained that they could also be sent"to other ‘progressive' states whose governors endorse blatant violations of federal immigration law.
Immigrant men from many countries are taken into custody by U.S. Border Patrol agents at the U.S.-Mexico border on December 7, 2021, in Yuma, Arizona.
