A Florida city council member is facing a wave of public criticism and formal censure following a series of social media posts calling for the mass deportation of Indian immigrants.
Chandler Langevin, a Republican member of the Palm Bay City Council, said that Indians come to America to “drain our pockets” before returning to India, “or worse … to stay.”
Langevin made the comments on social media in late September. In several posts, Langevin called for the deportation of Indian nationals and criticized what he described as the growing influence of Indian immigrants in the United States.
