The Florida state Legislature is set to decide whether to spend $10 million flying illegal immigrants to other places in the United States.
In September 2022, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis sent two planes carrying 49 mostly Venezuelan illegal immigrants apprehended at the Texas-Mexico border to the Martha’s Vineyard, an affluent Massachusetts resort island where former President Barack Obama owns a mansion. DeSantis later signaled that he might arrange more flights to other Democratic strongholds like Delaware and Illinois.
