Calls grow to investigate DeSantis over misinformation given to migrants
Misinformation given to a group of migrants flown to Martha’s Vineyard, Mass., has raised calls for an investigation into whether Florida GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis intentionally misled the asylum seekers, potentially violating the law.
The group of 50 were not only promised housing and employment – immigration law experts say they were given bad advice that could actually jeopardize their immigration status as they seek to remain in the U.S.
Perhaps the most controversial information provided to the migrants came in the form of brochures with information on how to register as refugees in Massachusetts, despite the fact that they’re asylum seekers, and are not eligible to register for that program.
