    "A coalition of groups, ranging from #EnvironmentalActivists to #NativeAmericans advocating for their ancestral homelands, converged outside an airstrip in the Florida #Everglades Saturday to protest the imminent construction of an immigrant detention center.

    "Hundreds of protesters lined part of U.S. #Highway41 that slices through the marshy Everglades β€” also known as #TamiamiTrail β€” as dump trucks hauling materials lumbered into the airfield. Cars passing by honked in support as protesters waved signs calling for the protection of the expansive preserve that is home to a few Native tribes and several #EndangeredAnimal species.

But as a South Florida city commissioner, he said concerns over #ImmigrationRaids in his city also fueled his opposition."
