Border Crisis
Chicago Designates Daley College as Shelter for Border Crossers
Officials in Chicago, Illinois, have converted Richard J. Daley College into a migrant refuge, where around 400 border crossers and illegal aliens currently reside.
Notwithstanding local citizens' resistance, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) is hosting 400 border crossers and illegal aliens at Daley College and another 400 at Wilbur Wright College for the duration of the summer.
Migrant families with children under the age of 18 are residing at the college, according to local officials. The action comes as border crossers and illegal aliens have already clogged Chicago police stations and a closed elementary school.
Late last month, the Chicago City Council approved $51 million in local public funding to offer housing, treatment, and food to thousands of freshly arrived border crossers and illegal immigrants arriving from the US-Mexico border.
Johnson welcomed the money for migrants despite widespread opposition from neighbors.
“How dare this mayor and city council have the guts to give migrants $51 million,” one resident said. “I demand you to have the same passion and urgency to pass the City of Chicago Reparations Ordinance and also give us an office for black Americans, just like the Office of New Americans.”
