Rubio: Migrants sent to Martha's Vineyard a 'minuscule fraction of the problem' facing border communities
Fox News
Sen. Marco Rubio said that while Martha's Vineyard is struggling with 50 migrants sent up north by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, border communities deal with much more.
"This is what happens when you have an administration that basically is telling people if you come into this country illegally, you’re going to get to stay," Rubio said.
Responding to a question about his governor sending 50 people to Martha's Vineyard, Rubio said he could not speak directly about what DeSantis did because he was not familiar with the details behind it. Still, he said what border states like Texas, Arizona, and Florida deal with is much worse, citing Monroe County, Fla., which he said saw 100 migrants in the previous week who landed on Florida's shores.
