California threatens legal action over migrant flights

June 06, 2023

Last September, DeSantis arranged and paid for nearly 50 migrants to fly from Texas to Martha's Vineyard, a wealthy resort island in the northeastern state of Massachusetts. While Florida officials have not commented on the two recent flights to Sacramento, California officials said some of the migrants were carrying documentation "purporting to be from the government of the State of Florida." "This isn't Martha's Vineyard. A second planeload of around 20 migrants, mainly from Venezuela, arrived in Sacramento on Monday, the New York Times reported. Separately on Monday, a Texas sheriff investigating the migrant flights last September from San Antonio to Martha's Vineyard recommended criminal charges.
