BOSTON — The dozens of migrants who were shipped to Martha’s Vineyard by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis last month are expected to leave Joint Base Cape Cod this week.
The 49 Venezuelan immigrants were flown from Texas to Martha’s Vineyard on the orders of DeSantis, surprising the island community last month.
After local residents and groups stepped up to help the migrants, they were moved to the military base on Cape Cod, which has been better equipped to meet their housing, food and basic needs.
