Nathan Clark of Springfield , Ohio , denounced the Republican presidential ticket and asked them to apologize during an impassioned speech before the city commission.

His statement came hours after JD Vance , the Republican nominee for vice president, mentioned the death of his 11-year-old son as a reason to oppose Haitian immigration.

Aiden Clark died in August 2023 on the first day of school when the bus he was riding in was hit by a Haitian immigrant.

The driver, Hermanio Joseph , was found guilty of involuntary manslaughter and vehicular homicide.
