- Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis called on the National Guard to crack down on migrants sailing into the Sunshine State
- The Florida National Guard will work to try and deter the mass migration while also ensuring the safety of those traveling in dangerous conditions
- In recent days, at least 500 hundred Cuban immigrants have made the perilous journey in battered boats to flee inflation and food shortages
- DeSantis slammed the Biden Administration for its ‘failure’ to stem the mass migration and provide aid to local law enforcement
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed an executive order calling on the National Guard to crack down on migrants sailing into the Sunshine State as he blasts Joe Biden.
DeSantis activated the state National Guard in response to 90 Cuban migrants who were apprehended after a series of five landings in the Florida Keys over the last 24 hours.
‘As the negative impacts of Biden’s lawless immigration policies continue unabated, the burden of the Biden administration’s failure falls on local law enforcement who lack the resources to deal with the crisis,’ DeSantis said.
‘That is why I am activating the National Guard and directing state resources to help alleviate the strain on local resources. When Biden continues to ignore his legal responsibilities, we will step in to support our communities.’
