In a new legal confrontation with Florida’s Governor, three prominent Florida attorneys and sitting Black women lawmakers — Ashley V. Gantt, LaVon Bracy Davis, and Michele Rayner — are challenging the denial of legislative access to a contentious immigrant detention center, colloquially known as “Alligator Alcatraz.” Situated at the Dade-Collier Training & Transition Airport, this facility is now at the heart of a case that has reached the Florida Supreme Court.
Ashley V. Gantt, LaVon Bracy Davis, and Michele Rayner have co-founded the law firm Bracy Davis, Gantt, & Rayner, P.A., and are spearheading the lawsuit. Their legal action seeks to question the state’s restrictive stance amidst evolving discussions about immigrant rights and legislative transparency. This development underscores their pivotal roles as both lawmakers and legal professionals advocating for change.
