California officials say migrants are being coaxed into taking flights to Sacramento under false pretenses.
California state officials have sent a letter to the Department of Justice regarding recent instances of asylum seekers being transported to the state.
The California officials said the California Department of Justice has opened an investigation into the circumstances of the flights. Last month, Newsom appeared to take exception to Florida’s policy of sending undocumented immigrants to other states, suggesting that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis could be charged with kidnapping. "This isn’t Martha’s Vineyard. Kidnapping charges?" Newsom said, adding a screenshot of California's kidnapping law.
In February, DeSantis signed Senate Bill 6B, which created the Unauthorized Alien Transport Program. The program and its $10 million of funding allow the State of Florida to transfer migrants from one state to another.
