The Trump administration plans to send hundreds of migrants from overcrowded shelters to Broward and Palm Beach counties, two Democratic strongholds that are among the state's most populous areas, the Sun Sentinel reported Thursday.

Broward Mayor Mark Bogen (D) and Palm Beach County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw told the newspaper that they were expecting about 1,000 people each month to be split between the two counties beginning in two weeks.

“The governor’s office was not informed of this decision,” DeSantis's spokeswoman told the Sentinel in a statement. “Florida counties do not have the resources to accommodate an influx of illegal immigrants.”

The administration has already begun releasing some migrants in large groups to Texas cities as officials say increasingly large numbers of people are entering the U.S. and facilities are becoming too crowded.
