The Florida State Board of Immigration Enforcement (FLSBIE) serves as the chief immigration enforcement body for the Free State of Florida.
Millions poured across the border under Biden—unchecked, unvetted, and among them, countless Iranians tied to terrorism. Florida won’t wait for a tragedy. With @fdlepio and @FLHSMV on watch, we’ll be seeing these “sleeper cells” sleeping in their Alligator Alcatraz cells soon…
Nearly 1,800 Troopers trained under 287(g) means Florida doesn’t miss. This van full of illegal immigrants never made it past Tampa. Great work by @FLHSMV keeping our highways safe.
Your Florida Highway Patrol in the Tampa region pulled over a van with 11 illegal immigrants. Thanks to the near 1,800 Troopers certified under the 287(g) program, we’re making sure Florida is not a sanctuary for criminals.
FDLE agents lead Florida’s major criminal investigations—organized crime, gangs, terrorism, you name it. Now they’re officially 287(g) certified by @ICEgov to both identify illegal alien threats and help ICE get them out of the country. Florida just raised the bar. Again.
Today, FDLE Special Agents and Capitol Police officially became 287(g) certified! Florida's premier statewide investigative agency now has the authority to detain, process, and help remove criminal illegal aliens from our state. Special thanks to our federal partners @ICEgov…
.@StephenM is correct: every governor should be calling @DHSgov asking how to support the immigration mandate like we do in the Sunshine State. Florida gave the Trump Administration a model that works. Every state in the union should step up, pick up the phone, and do the same.
Yesterday was a historic day for Florida—and for America. Alligator Alcatraz isn't just a facility. It's proof that when Florida leads, America wins. We will continue to support President Trump in turning bold ideas into reality. In this state, we make the impossible look easy.
Welcomed @POTUS to Florida today for a tour of Alligator Alcatraz, Florida’s one-stop shop for staging illegal aliens for deportation. Alligator Alcatraz can stage 3000 detainees for efficient removal—and has a two-mile runway to allow federal aircraft to transport illegal…

If you are a keyboard warrior thinking about doxxing federal agents and their families, Florida will not hesitate. At the direction of @GovRonDeSantis and @AGJamesUthmeier, FDLE Special Agents and FHP Troopers will hunt you down and lock you up. We back our federal partners with…
📺Watch ICE acting Director Todd M. Lyons discuss the dramatic increase in assaults on ICE officers and agents. He also covers: 📌Why ICE officers & agents wear masks and protect their identities 📌ICE’s role in protecting Americans from possible pro-Iranian terrorist threats…
An international fugitive wanted for sexually assaulting a child—here illegally, hiding in Florida. Now he's in custody thanks to strong partnerships and aggressive action by our state and federal law enforcement. Great work by @fdlepio, @EROMiami, @HSITampa and @FBITampa!
Darwin Villarroel Saucedo, a 43-year-old criminal illegal alien from Bolivia with citizenship in Spain, was arrested by @HSITampa @EROMiami @FDLEPIO @FBITampa. He is an international fugitive of Spain wanted for sexually assaulting of a minor. He is illegally present in the U.S.…
Florida is setting the national standard for immigration enforcement. Another criminal alien caught abusing our elections system—this one with a record of drug and weapons convictions. Great work by @fdlepio and @FLSecofState working with our federal partners at @HSI_Miami…
Yesterday, HSI Miami arrested a Haitian national charged with unlawful voting and casting a false ballot. He had previously been convicted of narcotics trafficking and weapons violation and sentenced to 10 years imprisonment.
Trafficking drugs near Florida schools? That's a fast track to jail—and deportation. Solid takedown by the S.A.F.E. Task Force and our federal partners. The state of Florida is the model for how we protect our communities from the threats of illegal aliens.
Another Florida S.A.F.E. Task Force success! #YourFDLE and the South Florida S.A.F.E. Task Force nabbed 3 criminal aliens for trafficking dangerous drugs near schools, now they are in lockup for peddling their poison. Thanks to our partners at @DEAMIAMIDiv, @ATFMiami,…
Outstanding work by @fdlepio Fort Myers, @HSITampa and @EROMiami. Florida doesn't overlook INTERPOL fugitives—especially not fraudsters here illegally. This illegal alien thought she could escape justice in the Sunshine State. She thought wrong.
#YourFDLE Fort Myers backed @HSITampa and @EROMiami Fort Myers to take down Marisol Ortega Alvarez—an illegal alien wanted for fraud in Mexico with an INTERPOL Red Notice. Looks like her scams didn't end up paying off after all. Now she's bound for ICE's Krome Detention Center.
Florida leads the nation with more law enforcement agencies that participate in the 287(g) program than any other state! @FLHSMV @fdlepio @FLSBIE
Your voice matters. If Florida can partner with us, so can your state. Ask your local police to partner with ICE. 💻Learn more: ICE.gov/287g
Attorney General James Uthmeier Supports Bay County Sheriff Tommy Ford in Takedown of Illegal Alien Driver's License Scheme x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
Florida is no safe haven for violent fugitives or designated foreign terrorists. Two criminal illegal aliens—both members of the notorious Tren de Aragua gang—were recently taken into custody thanks to outstanding collaboration between @HCSOSheriff and @HSITampa. Excellent work.
ARRESTED! Two criminal illegal aliens & Tren de Aragua gang members from Venezuela were apprehended by @HSITampa. Earlier in the day, the subjects were identified leaving their residence. @HCSO initiated a traffic stop leading to their administrative arrests. One is a…
Attorney General James Uthmeier Announces Protections for Immigration Officers in Titusville. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
Florida isn't waiting around. Our officers are working with @ICEgov every day to find, detain, and deport illegal aliens. Under @GovRonDeSantis, Florida is showing what real enforcement looks like, demonstrating to the nation how it should be done.
We enacted landmark legislation at the beginning of the year to require local and state law enforcement agencies to assist ICE with interior enforcement efforts. We need all hands on deck to protect the American people. I hope other states join the effort.
Trafficking a missing child. 28 fake IDs. And one of them shouldn't have even been in the country. Human trafficking, especially by illegal aliens, will not be tolerated in Florida. Great work by @FLHSMV for saving this child and taking these monsters off our streets.
Illegal immigrant involved in trafficking a minor into Florida! Your Florida Highway Patrol made a routine traffic stop in Gadsden County, where 3 adult males were trafficking a minor who had been reported missing. The men also had 28 fake ID cards in their possession. Troopers…
They weren't just here illegally—they were actively stealing from Florida businesses, even with final deportation orders already in place. @fdlepio and @OrlandoPolice put a stop to it. Now they're in custody and facing removal. Great work by our state and local law enforcement!
Shoplifting with final deportation orders? Bold move for these Colombian illegal aliens. One’s even tied to a South American theft ring! #YourFDLE and @OrlandoPolice made sure these three illegals thieving from hard-working Florida businesses are now in cuffs with ICE holds.
Florida is setting the standard for law and order. Over 100 illegal aliens arrested in a single Tallahassee operation, many with prior deportations and criminal records. Excellent work by @HSITampa @EROMiami @FLHSMV @fdlepio @DEAMiamiDiv @FBIJacksonville @ATF_Tampa @USMarshalsHQ…
Partnerships like these demonstrate why Florida is the leader in immigration enforcement. Taking down murder suspects and violent TDA members in coordinated ops show what’s possible when law and order is a priority. Great work @FLHSMV, @fdlepio, @ICEgov, @FBI and @USMarshalsHQ!
Today, your Florida Highway Patrol helped take two dangerous fugitives off the streets. One is wanted for murder in Colombia. The other is a suspected member of the violent Tren de Aragua gang. Both were captured during a coordinated operation with @ICEgov, @FBI, @fdlepio, and…
