Politics moves fast in Florida. Take the case of two new digital billboards opposing the state's Alligator Alcatraz detention camp. The billboards were purchased by the Florida Immigrant Coalition (FLIC), a statewide coalition of immigrant rights groups.
FLIC's ads were mysteriously taken down last week, less than 24 hours after going up, allegedly because of pressure from a state official. They were restored a day later.
Last Monday afternoon, the FLIC's new digital billboard advertisements appeared at two locations in Miami-Dade County. "Tell Mayor Daniella Levine Cava and County Officials: Sue to stop the Everglades Detention Camp," the ads read.
