The Colony Ridge development, located in Liberty County, Texas, near Plum Grove,\u2063 has grown to over 60 square miles, nearly the \u200bsize of Washington, D.C. With an estimated \u2063population of 50,000 to 75,000, the community is \u2062rapidly expanding due to targeted marketing towards Texas&#8217; Hispanic population.<\/p>\n<p>Expressing his concern on\u200d X, DeSantis wrote, &#8220;How have we gotten to a point in this country\u200b where \u200bwe are permitting and facilitating sprawling developments to house thousands of illegal immigrants who have broken our nation&#8217;s laws? Weak, spineless leaders. Our national sovereignty is at stake.\u200b We must stop excusing \u200binaction at \u200cthe top.

The sheer size of\u200c the settlement is both\u2063 astounding and alarming, raising\u2064 questions about how such \u200da massive development was able to take place without proper oversight.<\/p>\n<p>Governor DeSantis has been a vocal advocate for stricter immigration policies and\u2063 greater border security. \u200bHis vow to put an end to\u2063 the sprawling settlement of illegal immigrants aligns with his commitment to upholding national sovereignty and\u2064 enforcing immigration laws. He recognizes that allowing such developments to exist only encourages further illegal immigration \u2064and undermines the rule of law.<\/p>\n<p>The Colony Ridge development is a prime\u2063 example of the consequences of lax immigration policies. By creating a vast settlement exclusively \u2062for illegal immigrants, it sends a message that there are no repercussions for \u200dbreaking the law and\u200b entering the country illegally.
