More On Alligator Alcatraz
Florida lawmakers got their first tour of the new migrant detention facility in the Everglades called Alligator Alcatraz.
Democratic lawmakers had been asking for a tour for weeks after detainees claimed there were “inhumane” conditions inside the facility. A group of lawmakers had sued Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration to be allowed into the facility. On Saturday, July 12, protesters lined the streets as lawmakers from both sides of the aisle arrived at the site.
“We saw people, of course, yelling for help,” Democratic Rep. Maxwell Frost said. “We even saw someone yelling in the background, ‘I’m an American citizen.'”
