Gov. Ron DeSantis wants to block state contracts from going to companies that transport unaccompanied migrant minors from the southern border

Gov. Ron DeSantis' office says it is continuing to identify potential vendors involved with the federal program. | Joe Burbank/Orlando Sentinel via APTALLAHASSEE, Fla. — .

Using the Jacksonville International Airport as a backdrop in December, DeSantis said that murder was a major reason why he wanted the Republican-dominated legislature to pass legislation blocking state contracts from companies that conduct the flights. At the time, he said he had reviewed a list of vendors that took part in the federal program.

One of the companies, “World ATL,” could not be identified, and another listed as “Elite Air” brought up multiple different companies. One company contacted by POLITICO said it was not them, while another did not return requests seeking comment. The records the Florida Department of Law Enforcement obtained from a “source” identified 78 total flights between May and October 2021, of which 34 came from Houston and another 17 from El Paso.

GovRonDeSantis MiamiHerald DeSantis governance contrary to Covid Science, puts his immune compromised wife at risk; what’s up with that? With a husband like Ron, Casey needs no enemies in her fight to recover.

So how will Matt Gaetz get dates?

Biden failed to perform the basic of his duties, securing border. He could just move them to blue states since they support illegals.

Great idea just do it.

Talk about incorrect bs there. He wants to stop programs that allow for transport of all illegal immigrants further into the US. How about secure the border and this crap won't happen? The left won't do that because they want their illegitimate votes to happen.

How about racists?

Big govt for a win with DeSatans

Florida’s Atlantic and Gulf Borders?

recall desantis / so enforcing this is based on common knowledge that is of no-cost to his constituents?

Is this what they call 'cancel culture'?
