DeSantis gets the go-ahead from Florida Legislature to send migrants to sanctuary cities

Heads up, sanctuary cities. Governor Ron DeSantis has been given the go-ahead to send illegal aliens to sanctuary cities, Democrat-run cities that virtue-signal about welcoming everyone, regardless of legal status. The problem is that when border state governors take them up on their claims, the mayors of those cities have a hissy fit. Which is it? Are these cities welcoming everyone or not?

The Florida Legislature passed a bill that provides $12 million to fly illegal aliens to Democrat cities. This money will fund the program DeSantis used last year to fly illegal aliens to Martha’s Vineyard. That move, more than any other up until that point, fully exposed Democrats as the hypocrites they are. In February DeSantis signed the Unauthorized Alien Transport Program into law. It formally launched a new program to relocate illegal migrants from anywhere in the country to sanctuary cities and states. The bill passed by the Legislature helps to fund the program.

Last September DeSantis informally began the new program to send a message that Florida supports border states like Texas and Arizona in their efforts to send buses or flights outside their states with illegal aliens on board. The illegal aliens volunteer to be transported to other states and are given a choice as to which city they travel to. Immigration activists and other Democrats lost their minds when they dared to arrive at the very exclusive island location. The progressives who live there quickly and enthusiastically welcomed the migrants, mostly from Venezuela, with their best high school Spanish and hugs for the cameras. Then, they served them bowls of cold cereal and put them on buses to a military facility. There they were kept under supervision until they could be moved to their final destinations. How’s that for a welcome?

To begin with they should be turning them away at the border.  $12 is a lot of taxpayer dollars to relocate them so I take issue with all of this.

Who is going to support them in the sanctuary cities?  What's are who is going to prevent them from traveling elsewhere?

Our economy cannot sustain supporting millions of ILLEGALS. 

Bottom line is the DEMS will have their votes ensuring that a Republican will never be seated again.  They will have succeeded in destroying our Republic and there is NO turning back.

You're sending them the wrong way, Ronnie.
