Bexar County Sheriff, California governor press for DOJ to investigate migrant flights
Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar has joined two of California's top elected officials in asking the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate whether Florida's funding of flights shipping migrants out of Texas violated the law. In a letter sent Thursday to Attorney General Merrick B. Garland, Salazar joined California Gov. Gavin Newsom and California Attorney General Rob Bonta in raising concerns that migrants were lured onto the flights by "false representations" that they would receive jobs and assistance if relocated. Last September, flights arranged by Florida officials whisked 49 migrants from San Antonio to Martha's Vineyard.
