Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced plans to open a second immigration detention center, dubbed “Deportation Depot,” as a step to expand the state’s capacity to hold and deport undocumented immigrants.

DeSantis justified building the center that he dubbed "Deportation Depot," by saying the Trump administration needs the additional capacity to hold and deport more immigrants.

The DeSantis administration is making arrangements to hold immigrant detainees at a North Florida prison as a federal judge weighs whether to temporarily shut down Alligator Alcatraz, the makeshift immigration detention camp in the Everglades.
