Politicizing Grief: When a Family's Tragedy Becomes a Campaign Tool A devastating truck crash on Ohio's I 71 highway claimed the lives of Lynnea, Luke, and one year old Logan Soposki, leaving their community shaken.
However, the family's grief was further compounded by a Republican campaign ad that cynically used their loved ones' names and photos to push for stricter immigration policies.
The 15 second "Dangerous for Ohio" ad, crafted by the National Republican Senatorial Committee, blamed former Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown's open border policies for the tragedy.
