Governor Mike DeWine criticized Trump and Vance for amplifying false claims about Haitian immigrants, asserting that such rhetoric harms Springfield and misconstrues important immigration discussions.
DeWine expressed disappointment that Springfield has become a hotspot for negative narratives regarding immigration, specifically targeting the unsubstantiated allegations against legal Haitian immigrants.
Acknowledging Trump's focus on immigration issues, DeWine emphasized that their racially charged statements undermine a crucial discussion about border policy and dilute legitimate concerns.
Ohio officials reacted variably to DeWine's piece, with some praising his stance against bigotry directed at Haitians while criticizing his continued support for Trump and Vance.
