Indiana city where 'explosion' of Haitians overwhelms schools

Angry residents of a remote Indiana city complain of being deluged by migrants from Haiti and elsewhere, putting a strain on schools, hospitals, and other social services. Locals of Logansport, a city of 18,000 in the center of the state, say students are being muscled out of public schools by an influx of thousands of foreign newcomers. They say the migrants came for jobs at a local meat-packing plant, but that their kids can't speak English and suck up the attention of teachers, dragging down standards. Barrie McClain, a retired teacher, said public schools and healthcare facilities were 'impacted terribly' by the influx and urged the federal government to bail out her cash-strapped city. 'The native born are now a minority in the local school system,' McClain, a county GOP treasurer, told The Mail. 'They have to figure out how to educate all these folks, without having anybody who knows how to translate for a lot of the languages. So those are big problems.'She said Logansport Memorial Hospital was overcrowded nowadays and the local board of health was 'trying to deal with diseases we don't normally deal with in the US.' Unchecked immigration has become a top issue for voters in Vice President Kamala Harris' election battle against former president Donald Trump, who vows to deport millions of 'illegals' if he wins next month. Logansport has become the latest immigration flash point, after a slew of headlines about Haitian migrants eating pets in Springfield, Ohio, and Latino gangsters running amok in apartment blocks in Aurora, Colorado.
