Gov. DeSantis seeks $8 million to bus undocumented immigrants out of Florida
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) is seeking millions in his proposed budget package to transport illegal aliens out of the state.
Late last week, as Breitbart News reported, DeSantis announced six proposals to cut illegal immigration in Florida by crippling the funding sources of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and corporations that help resettle border crossers for the federal government.
DeSantis also signed an emergency order that bans the issuance or renewal of all state licenses to Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF) facilities that provide services to Unaccompanied Alien Children (UACs).
DeSantis has requested $8 million in his budget proposal for this activity. DeSantis offered his opinion on where to transport those who are in the state of Florida illegally.
“In yesterday’s budget, I put in $8 million for us to be able to transport people here illegally out of the state of Florida,” DeSantis said. “It’s somewhat tongue in cheek, but it is true, if you sent them to Delaware or Martha’s Vineyard or some of these places, that border would be secure the next day.”
According to national statistics, 775,000 illegal aliens live in Florida. Only Texas and California have a higher number.
