Also, it appears that the majority of the people he transported were NOT in your country illegally - they are registered asylum seekers with pending court hearings. Under federal law, people in that situation are legally allowed to be in the US. As if that weren’t enough, Florida law says the funds earmarked for relocation of undocumented people are to be used to transport people ‘from this state’.
DeSantis broke both state and federal laws with his little stunt. He dismisses the laws as ‘semantics’.

We have MILLIONS.
When you get millions and figure out what to do about it - get back with us.....
But the people he transported were NOT in your country illegally.
Even if they were, what did DeSantis’ little piece of showboating do to help the problem? If those people were illegally in Texas (and for the third time, they weren’t), then they’re illegally in Massachusetts.
