TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Wednesday flew two planes of immigrants to Marthas Vineyard, escalating a tactic by Republican governors to draw attention to what they consider to be the Biden administrations failed border policies.
Flights to the upscale island enclave in Massachusetts were part of an effort to transport illegal immigrants to sanctuary destinations, said Taryn Fenske, DeSantis communications director.
While DeSantis office didnt elaborate on their legal status, many migrants who cross the border illegally from Mexico are temporarily shielded from deportation after being freed by U.S. authorities to pursue asylum in immigration court as allowed under U.S law and international treaty or released on humanitarian parole.

Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker, a Republican, said he was in touch with local officials and that short-term shelter was being provided.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott began busing thousands of migrants to Washington in April and recently added New York and Chicago as destinations. Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey has been busing migrants to Washington since May. Passengers must sign waivers that the free trips are voluntary.
DeSantis, who is mentioned as potential presidential candidate, appears to be taking the strategy to a new level by using planes and choosing Marthas Vineyard, whose harbor towns that are home to about 15,000 people are far less prepared than New York or Washington for large influxes of migrants.

The move is likely to delight DeSantis supporters who deride Democrat-led, immigrant-friendly sanctuary cities and anger critics who say he is weaponizing migrants as pawns for political gain.
