Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Friday announced that state law enforcement had intercepted a vessel coming to the Florida coast carrying dozens of Haitian migrants, as well as firearms, drugs and night vision gear.
“Our Florida Fish and Wildlife offices interdicted a vessel that had 25 illegal immigrants, potential illegal immigrants from Haiti in their boat. In their vessel they had firearms, they had drugs, they had night vision gear and were boating very recklessly, which would potentially endanger other folks,” DeSantis said, adding that the interdiction had occurred “recently” in the last few weeks.
“That vessel was interdicted near the Sebastian Inlet and those illegal aliens were turned over to the Coast Guard for deportation,” he said.

Also during the Friday morning press conference, DeSantis signed three pieces of legislation aimed at keeping illegal aliens out of Florida.
- Increased the maximum sentence for people driving without a license.
- Enhanced penalties for crimes committed by illegal immigrants who return to the country after deportation
- Third bill states that no jurisdiction can recognize IDs that are distributed by other states to illegal immigrants
“We’ve previously banned local governments and NGOs from issuing IDs to illegal aliens. Today, I signed HB 1451, which prohibits counties and municipalities from accepting IDs issued to illegal aliens,” DeSantis announced.

“In Florida, we don’t allow illegal aliens to get drivers licenses and we won’t recognize drivers licenses that sanctuary jurisdictions give to illegal aliens. By increasing the penalties for driving without a valid license, the law I signed today is another tool to help law enforcement keep Floridians safe from the impacts of the border crisis,” the governor said.

“If you have been deported and you come to this state and you’re here illegally and you commit crimes, we are throwing the book at you. You are going to regret coming to the state of Florida,” DeSantis declared.
