A group of Venezuelan migrants who were shuttled from Texas to Martha's Vineyard last week filed a lawsuit against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis who took credit for the latest Republican effort to transport migrants to Democratic-run areas.
The governor gave a presentation to the media about the storm.
A mysterious blonde woman from San Antonio, Texas, who claimed to be called Perla, is one of the defendants in the lawsuit.
According to the lawsuit, the migrants were transported to Massachusetts under false pretenses and told they would have access to housing, education, legal assistance and other resources upon their arrival.
According to the lawsuit, many of the people were told before boarding the plane that they were going to either Boston or Washington, D.C., and only found out they were going to Martha's Vineyard when they were already in the air.
After the plane arrived in Martha's Vineyard, the migrants were left "destitute and stranded" on the tarmac and were not provided with any of the assistance they were promised.
According to the lawsuit, the relocation interfered with federal immigration laws, violated the civil rights of the migrants, and caused severe emotional distress.
The defendants were accused of targeting people who were not white and who were born outside the United States.
A group of three migrants who boarded the flights asked a federal judge in Massachusetts to recognize their case as a class-action suit on behalf of everyone who was transported across state lines by Florida officials.
Local officials scrambled to provide the migrants with resources after they arrived on Martha's Vineyard. Florida is not a sanctuary state, and we will allow the transport of illegal immigrants to sanctuary states. It is not clear why the Florida relocation program targeted migrants in Texas. The governors of Arizona and Texas paid to bus immigrants in Texas to other places. Critics derided the busing effort as an inhumane political stunt, but Republicans said it was a way of pushing back against the Biden Administration's immigration policies.
Some of the migrants were given McDonald's gift certificates in an effort to gain their trust, according to a lawsuit. They were put up in hotels away from the migrant center, and from the possibility of good Samaritans finding out how the class members were being abused, according to the suit.
Critics have suggested that Florida may have broken federal criminal laws. There are legal implications around fraud, kidnapping, deprivation of liberty, and human trafficking, according to a Massachusetts state lawmaker. Legal experts are not sure. The flights probably didn't violate federal law because the migrants were already released by Homeland Security and allowed to stay in the U.S.
