Several prominent Republican politicians were named in a federal lawsuit filed Friday alleging a “civil conspiracy to violate the civil rights of Haitian migrants, particularly those residing in Springfield, Ohio.”
The lawsuit, filed in a Miami federal court by The Office of the Haitian Diaspora (ODIHA) and the Haitian Diaspora Political Action Committee (HDPAC), claims that widespread baseless claims about Haitian immigrants in Springfield eating pets have caused harm. It seeks compensatory and punitive damages and injunctive relief to “prevent further violations of the plaintiffs’ civil rights,” according to a statement from the groups Monday.
Defendants include former President Donald Trump and his current running mate U.S. Sen. JD Vance, Donald Trump Jr., X owner Elon Musk, X for its hosting of the claims, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost, U.S. Senate candidate Bernie Moreno, the state of Ohio and Louisiana Rep. Clay Higgins.
