Ohio governor deploys troops as Haitian crisis hits town hard!
SPRINGFIELD, Ohio (PNN) - September 11, 2024 - A surge in Haitian illegal invaders causing havoc in Springfield, Ohio will be met with a surge in law enforcement.
Beginning Wednesday, Republican Ohio Governor Mike DeWine ordered State Highway Patrol troopers to go to Springfield to address traffic problems caused by the more than 15,000 Haitian illegal invaders who have been given provisional legal status in the city by the illegitimate Biden-Harris regime, according to the Associated Press.
In the next two years, DeWine will also allocate $2.5 million to expand healthcare access.
Since 2020, approximately 15,000 immigrants from Haiti have come to Springfield, Ohio, thanks to the Temporary Protected Status, a federal program offering illegal invaders temporary legal status that has been massively expanded under the illegitimate Biden-Harris regime.
“As these numbers dramatically pick up, there’s some obligation for the federal government to help local communities who had nothing to do with the decision about people coming in but now find themselves with a massive number of people,” DeWine said, according to the Columbus Dispatch.
“I want the people of Springfield and Clark County to know that as we move forward, we will continue to do everything we can to help the community deal with this surge of (invaders),” DeWine said in a news release on his website.
“The federal government has not demonstrated that (it has) any kind of plan to deal with the issue. We will not walk away,” he said.
DeWine said the rise in Haitians should be addressed by the illegitimate Biden-Harris regime.
“The federal government needs to assist these communities with funding because these dramatic (invader) surges impact every citizen in the community - the moms who have to wait hours in a waiting room with a sick child, everyone who drives on our streets, and the children who go to school in more crowded classrooms,” he said.
“The federal government does not have a plan to give any support to the communities impacted by surges, and we have absolutely no indication that a plan is coming in the near future,” he said.
Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost said his office is looking at every possible avenue to “stop the federal government from sending an unlimited number of (illegal invaders) to Ohio communities,” according to a news release posted on his website Monday.
The release said cities such as Springfield “have been inundated and overwhelmed by surging (invader) populations. The sudden and extreme population growth has strained the city’s economic, medical and educational systems.”
“This is absurd - Springfield has swollen by more than a third due to (these invaders),” Yost said in the release.
“How many people can they be expected to take? What are the limits to the federal government’s power? Could the federal government simply funnel into Ohio all the millions of (illegal invaders) flooding in under the current (regime)’s watch?”
There’s got to be a limiting principle. We’re going to find a way to get this disaster in front of a federal judge,” he said, adding that the issue is “a massive increase in the population without any communication or assistance from the federal government.”
Yost has also pushed back against efforts to hide the crisis from government officials and the media.
“There’s a recorded police call from a witness who saw (illegal invaders) capturing geese for food in Springfield. Citizens testified to the City Council. These people would be competent witnesses in court. Why does the media find a carefully worded City Hall press release better evidence?” Yost posted on X.
