The aftermath of Haitian gangs storming its prisons and freeing approximately 3,700 inmates has become problematic for the United States. Florida leaders are urging President Joe Biden to utilize the United States Navy in order to intercept Haitians attempting to enter the country by sea.
Haiti is descending “into anarchy” as the “Haitian Prime Minister Ariel Henry has since resigned and there is no effective government in the country at present” reports Just the News.
The group of House Republicans representing Florida include Matt Gaetz, Gus Biliarakis, Anna Paulina Luna, and Daniel Webster. They have urged Biden to declare an “anticipated mass migration of aliens en route to, or arriving off the coast of, the United States,” to be a situation necessitating federal action. Such a move, they said, is “necessary to reinforce the State of Florida’s efforts by utilizing Department of Defense vessels to conduct maritime interdictions and interceptions of aliens from Haiti and repatriate them.”
