Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) announced Wednesday that Florida is going to revive a program to assist U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement with deportations, citing how this program had been laid “dormant” during the Biden administration.
The program, 287(g), allows ICE to delegate authority to both state and local law enforcement to perform immigration officer functions under ICE’s direction. In announcing that Florida would be reviving this program, DeSantis knocked the Biden administration for “actively” working to subvert under President Joe Biden’s watch in the White House.
