TABS Spokesperson Alexis Wilkins released the following statement applauding DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for their leadership in orchestrating and executing Operation Criminal Return, which led to the arrests of more than 150 illegal immigrant sex offenders across the state of Florida:
“Secretary Noem and Governor DeSantis have demonstrated extraordinary leadership in their efforts to protect American children and families. The success of Operation Criminal Return sends a clear message: under President Trump’s leadership, America will no longer tolerate dangerous criminals who enter our country illegally and prey on the innocent. This effort, which resulted in the arrests of more than 150 illegal immigrant sex offenders accused of horrific crimes, marks a major victory for public safety and the rule of law.
For years, Democrat politicians have turned a blind eye to the devastation caused by open-border and sanctuary policies, enabling predators to walk free in our communities. While blue-state leaders like Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker continue to attack and obstruct immigration enforcement, Operation Criminal Return proves what can be achieved when federal, state, and local leaders work together, uphold our laws, and prioritize the safety of our citizens.
TABS commends Secretary Noem, Governor DeSantis, and the brave men and women of DHS and ICE for their tireless commitment to defending our nation, protecting our communities, and restoring law and order.”
