It is an election year and immigration is a big issue.  So expect more stories like this one.

The headline to this story by Miriam Jordan for the New York Times says it all:  :How an Ohio Town Landed in the Middle of the Immigration DebateJobs attracted thousands of Haitians to Springfield, and employers were ecstatic. But then an immigrant driver was involved in a fatal school bus crash. And JD Vance entered the fray."  

The setting of the controversy is Springfield, Ohio, not to be confused with the town of Springfield of Simpsons fame.
