Selective: Increased Meth in Florida and the Southern Border
Emerging story
On June 16, 2021, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis said that the state has a worsening meth problem due to loosened border restrictions: “That meth, if you go back 10, 20 years ago, you’d find these places where they’d be cooking this stuff up locally. That’s not what’s happening now. It’s almost all coming across the southern border, and it’s been accelerating for the last six months, and it’s deepening the problems that we are having in terms of getting a handle on this in our own communities here in the state of Florida." He also blamed Biden's loose border policies for increased meth in Florida.
DeSantis’s claim soon took off on social media.
