The long-awaited “Alligator Alcatraz” detention center officially opens today in Florida’s Everglades, promising a new chapter in immigration control.
President Donald Trump and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis will spearhead the event, despite backlash from environmentalists and leftist critics.
The facility’s innovative approach to border control showcases a partnership between Florida and the federal government, highlighting their dedication to tackling illegal immigration.
The facility, located on 30-square miles of what was once an airport in the Miami-Dade County Everglades, will hold up to 5,000 illegal migrants awaiting deportation.
The $450 million annual cost is funded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Shelter and Services Program, addressing the demand for detention space emphasized by DeSantis.
Environmental activists gathered on U.S. Highway 41 to express concerns about the facility’s impact on the Everglades.
Despite ongoing legal challenges and protests from environmental groups, Gov. DeSantis and federal officials remain committed to their mission.
Governor DeSantis underlined the center’s potential to streamline immigration processing and deportations.
With assistance from Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, Florida’s efforts hope to provide a blueprint for other states.
The strategic placement at Dade-Collier Airport demonstrates thoughtful consideration to mitigate community disruption while ensuring smooth logistics.
“I’ve mentioned our efforts on illegal immigration, stepping up and really helping, and I think the one thing that we have seen over the initial months of the Trump administration, is when we ask DHS, ‘What can we do?’ they’re just like, ‘We just need detention space,'” DeSantis commented.
The facility, despite its controversies, reflects a robust stance against illegal immigration.
The fulfillment of this initiative marks a significant stride for the Trump administration’s mass deportation campaign, promoting an efficient and low-cost solution to a nationwide issue.
DHS Secretary Kristi Noem reiterated the detention center’s critical role in maintaining border security.
Environmental groups have sought to halt construction pending a thorough environmental review.
However, with federal approval and the promise of economic reimbursement for incurred costs, “Alligator Alcatraz” stands as a testament to Florida’s pioneering spirit in safeguarding American sovereignty.
“I did speak with the president this weekend, he’s very excited about doing it,” DeSantis revealed.
As the gates open today, “Alligator Alcatraz” symbolizes a decisive stance on illegal immigration that aligns with the values and priorities of American patriots.
The facility promises to become a pivotal part of President Trump’s legacy in securing the nation.
