An activist group which has filed a class-action lawsuit against Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and other Florida officials over last week’s migrant flights to Martha’s Vineyard received nearly $1.4 million from George Soros’ Open Society Network.
According to Fox News, nonprofit immigrant advocacy group Lawyers for Civil Rights filed the suit on behalf of Alianza Americas, which was described in a press release as “a network of migrant-led organizations supporting immigrants across the United States.”
The lawsuit was filed in the District of Massachusetts, and alleges that DeSantis and other officials “designed and executed a premeditated, fraudulent and illegal scheme centered on exploiting this vulnerability for the sole purpose of advancing their own personal, financial and political interests.”
According to Open Society Foundation records, Alianza Americas received $1,383,947 between 2016 and 2020 – with grants coming from three Soros nonprofits; Open Society Institute, Open Society Policy Center and Foundation to Promote Open Society.
