TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – Sen. Rick Scott, R-Fla., called a recent report about a majority of migrant flights landing in Florida that are part of President Joe Biden’s controversial parole and release admissions program “unacceptable” and demanded answers.
“I will not allow Biden to put Floridians in danger by flying unvetted illegal aliens into our state,” Scott said.
Scott demanded answers following a report by the Center for Immigration Studies that said the bulk of the 386,000 illegal immigrants permitted to fly to interior U.S. airports as part of the parole and release admissions program have been directed to Florida.
The senator sent a letter of concern on March 13 to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
