California wants an investigation into the two planes of migrants that landed in California as part of Florida's program sending migrants to other states. Gov. Gavin Newsom said he thinks Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis could be charged with kidnapping.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom appeared to take exception with Florida’s policy of sending undocumented immigrants to other states, suggesting on Mondaythat 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.
Earlier on Monday, California Attorney General Rob Bonta said a second plane full of asylum seekers landed in Sacramento.
