Haitians are arriving in large numbers across small rural towns in the U.S. due to several Biden-Harris administration policies, according to a new report from Just the News. Communities in states like Ohio, Alabama, and Pennsylvania are experiencing significant increases in immigrant populations, primarily due to programs that allow illegal border crossers from Haiti to stay temporarily. While some local officials argue that these immigrants are contributing positively, residents raise concerns about increased crime, strain on public services, and dangerous driving conditions.
Key Facts:
– Since fiscal 2021, over 485,000 Haitians have crossed the U.S. border illegally, with nearly 216,000 reported in the current fiscal year.
– More than 205,000 Haitians have been released through the CHNV parole program since July.
– Many small towns like Springfield, Ohio, and Sylacauga, Alabama, report sharp population increases due to Haitian immigrants.
– Local officials argue these immigrants are in the U.S. legally under Temporary Protected Status (TPS) until February 2026.
– Residents are concerned about rising crime, welfare enrollment, and safety on local roads.
The Rest of The Story:
The surge of Haitian immigrants into small American communities is a direct consequence of Biden-Harris immigration policies. U.S. Customs and Border Protection has reported record numbers of Haitian border crossers since 2021, with numbers continuing to rise. Of these, many have been released into the country under programs like the CHNV parole program, which critics argue is illegal. U.S. House Republicans and state attorneys general have challenged these policies, citing them as reasons to impeach DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.
Local governments, like that of Springfield, Ohio, point to the TPS designation granted by the Biden administration as the reason for the influx. Mayor Bob Rue acknowledged that his hands are tied, as these policies stem from federal directives. While officials in some towns have praised the contributions of the Haitian community, residents in places like Springfield and Sylacauga are raising the alarm about increased crime and strained local resources.
In Sylacauga, Alabama, tensions have flared at town meetings, with residents demanding answers about busloads of Haitian immigrants arriving in their town. City Council President Tiffany Nix dismissed concerns, framing the issue as one of race rather than public safety. Similar concerns are being voiced in other parts of the country, including Pennsylvania, where local schools are struggling to accommodate the influx of new students.
Republicans argue that most of these immigrants are inadmissible under U.S. law, but they continue to be released into the country with only a notice to appear at future immigration court hearings, often years away. Many of these individuals had been living in other countries like Mexico or Chile before claiming asylum in the U.S., further complicating their legal status.
Commentary:
The Biden-Harris administration’s open-border policy is wreaking havoc on small towns across America, leading to a surge in crime, welfare dependency, and unsafe conditions on the roads.

These policies have effectively made it easier for illegal immigrants to enter and remain in the country, often at the expense of law-abiding citizens. The rising number of Haitian immigrants in towns like Springfield is straining resources and making residents feel unsafe. The fact that local officials are powerless to stop this influx shows how disconnected Washington bureaucrats are from the everyday concerns of Americans.
In November, voters have a chance to send a clear message. The Democrats’ reckless immigration policies are hurting communities nationwide.
It’s time for Americans to vote every Democrat out of office and demand policies that prioritize the safety and well-being of U.S. citizens over illegal border crossers.
The Bottom Line:
Haitian immigrants are arriving in small towns across the U.S., largely due to federal policies that allow illegal border crossers to remain in the country under Temporary Protected Status.
