Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has unveiled an ambitious plan to tackle illegal immigration from his state, with the creation of a processing and deportation center located at a remote airstrip in the Everglades. With this new approach, DeSantis aims to speed up the removal of illegal immigrants and set a national precedent.
DeSantis explained that the airstrip in question, although far from civilization, has sufficient infrastructure—including a vast concrete area—to operate flights and process individuals immediately. “Once they’re there, they’re not going anywhere unless we say so,” DeSantis stated, emphasizing the site’s natural level of security.
