Florida Governor Gov. Ron DeSantis is sending members of the Florida National Guard and the Florida State Guard to assist Texas in its efforts at the southern border.
The deployments join the more than 90 officers from Florida's Highway Patrol, Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, and the Department of Law Enforcement who have already been deployed, and DeSantis noted in a statement that more law enforcement resources are coming.
”Last spring the Florida National Guard was one of the first in the nation to deploy rotations of soldiers to support Operation Lone Star in Texas," Haas said. "We have proudly and readily supported our own state's efforts in similar roles here in Florida."
