Can anyone name one positive benefit for Americans since the tens of thousands of Haitians moved to Springfield, Ohio? No? I didn’t think so. This is why there should be nothing but celebrations over reports of 80% of them self-deporting, as this can only bring good things to the country.

Per Spectrum News:

Haitian families are leaving Ohio over the uncertainty surrounding their immigration status.

A U.S. The Supreme Court decision last month allows the Trump administration to end their Temporary Protected Status (TPS).

While it is great that SCOTUS sided on the “right side of history,” the amount of damage caused by this should not be taken lightly. Officials, both local and all the way to federal, turned a blind eye and slapped Springfield residents in the face, solely because they deemed a group of foreign nationals less fortunate. You cannot return after betrayal like this, and it is astonishing how the media is painting this as if the deportations are a bad thing for Americans.

In one of Ohio’s largest populations of Haitian immigrants in Springfield, community leaders are concerned about another challenge that could create — more vacant homes.

Houses boarded up and abandoned are a reminder of a problem Springfield has spent years trying to fix. But with uncertainty around immigration status and Haitian families moving out because of it, city leaders worry the city could face another wave of empty houses.

The Trump administration on Monday announced sweeping new banking rules aimed at cracking down on lending to illegal immigrants, requiring lenders to consider that borrowers without legal work authorization may pose “elevated credit risk,” a move that supporters say could improve housing affordability for Americans.

The rules require banks and credit unions to account for the possibility that an illegal immigrant borrower could lose his job, be unable to find lawful work, or be removed from the country before repaying a mortgage, auto loan, credit-card balance, or other debt.

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. and the National Credit Union Administration issued the joint guidance under President Donald Trump’s May executive order, “Restoring Integrity to America’s Financial System.”
