Ohio Gov. DeWine: Deporting Our Haitian Immigrants Who Are Here Under TPS Status Would Be a Blow to Our Economy
‘If you look at Ohio‘s growth in the last few years, over half that growth has come from immigrants who are here and they‘re working and they‘re helping the economy grow and helping us’
EXCERPT:
DEWINE: “From the point of view of economic development, Springfield has been moving forward, Springfield is coming back. Part of the reason they've been able to come back is because of these Haitians who are there. They're not only working, but of course they're spending money in the community. There's been businesses started, restaurants have started. And if we lose all those, if they lose temporary protected status and they no longer can work and companies can't employ them, that's a blow to the economy. That's a blow to the state.”
