Five Florida state lawmakers who were denied access to a new immigration detention center in the Everglades are suing Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Five Democratic lawmakers turned away from Alligator Alcatraz last week are asking the Florida Supreme Court to force the DeSantis administration to allow unannounced visits to the migrant detention center in the Everglades.

The lawmakers argue Governor Ron DeSantis violated state law and the Florida Constitution by denying them access.
