Migrant boats landing on beaches along the Florida Keys | Rush Hour
As a record number of migrants attempt to cross the U.S.-Mexico border by land, authorities in Florida are dealing with an influx of migrants coming by sea.
Earlier this month, Gov. Ron DeSantis signed an executive order activating the Florida National Guard to help manage the influx of migrants landing in the Florida Keys.
Most of those migrants are coming from Cuba and Haiti and at least 65 have died at sea since August. In total, more than 4,400 migrants have arrived by boat in Florida over the past five months.
