Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier has launched a scathing attack on the Biden administration, accusing it of orchestrating covert flights transporting migrants into the state. He branded the operation as 'illegal and unacceptable', demanding immediate transparency.
Uthmeier's Explosive Allegations
In a fiery statement, Uthmeier claimed that federal authorities have been secretly flying migrants from the southern border to Florida without proper vetting or coordination with state officials. 'This is a blatant violation of federal law and an affront to the rule of law,' he declared.
Demands for Accountability
The Attorney General has called for a full investigation into the alleged flights, insisting that the Biden administration must:
- Disclose the number of migrants transported
- Provide details on their immigration status
- Explain the selection criteria for relocation
Broader Immigration Debate
This controversy erupts amid growing tensions over border security, with Republican-led states increasingly challenging federal immigration policies. Florida has been at the forefront of this battle, implementing strict measures against illegal immigration.
Critics argue these migrant flights represent a 'backdoor amnesty' policy, while supporters maintain they're a humanitarian response to overcrowded border facilities.
