Florida has over the years positioned itself as a key ally to the Trump administration's mass deportation efforts. Now, a new 37-page document submitted to the federal government emphasizes the Sunshine State's strategy to fully support what the GOP promises will be the "largest deportation operation in American history."

The new document explains Florida's strategy in identifying, apprehending, detaining and deporting undocumented immigrants. Ultimately, Gov. Ron DeSantis' administration hopes to ease pressures on federal partners like Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the Miami Herald reports.
