Opponents call ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ callous, political stunt, ‘DeSantis’ internment camp’
“DeSantis’ internment camp puts decades of massive restoration and billions of dollars in Everglades investments at risk, said U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Florida. ”It desecrates the tribal lands it sits upon and wastes hundreds of millions of state funding at a grossly inflated cost. When hurricanes bear down on these flimsy structures at a sacred, environmentally sensitive location, it will either produce costly evacuation boondoggles, or grisly mass casualties."
