What really happened when thousands of Haitian migrants arrived in Springfield, Ohio, and who actually benefited? New York Times bestselling author Joshua Lisec joins The Jeff Dornik Show to break down his on-the-ground investigation for Haitians of Springfield, including firsthand accounts from residents, the role of employers, staffing agencies, nonprofits and government programs, the strain on schools, housing, public safety and local infrastructure, and yes, the infamous cats-and-dogs controversy that turned Springfield into a national political firestorm. But the bigger question is the one almost nobody wanted to ask: Did powerful interests profit from an enormous supply of migrant labor while ordinary Springfield residents were forced to absorb the consequences? We dig into what Lisec says he documented, what remains disputed, who made money, who paid the price, and what Springfield should teach the rest of America about mass migration, assimilation and what happens when immigration policy collides with reality.
