And nobody cares.
Have you contacted your lawmakers, or is Biden's border flood okay with you?


(The Center Square) – Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson says the city of Chicago has had conversations with suburban leaders in Cook and other counties about the possibility of moving migrants into their communities.

Thousands of migrant families have arrived in Chicago over the past year. City officials have placed many in police stations, YMCAs and Daley College.

Johnson said the city is looking at other towns to help with housing migrants.

"We've had conversations with mayors across not just Cook County but the surrounding counties, and we have had tremendous feedback," Johnson said. "We see some real support on the horizon."

Johnson said conversations will continue in the coming days and weeks.

"Looking forward in the days to come that these collaborative efforts that we have been organizing will begin to see some dynamic come to fruition," Johnson said.

The suburbs said they would fill up the bus with fuel and send them right back.... lol
 
I have a more old fashioned idea for how to deal with the illegal immigrants flooding Chicago and NYC and so forth. Instead of moving them to the suburbs, why not move them back to where they came from? It’s called “deportation.”

And if they try illegal entry a second time, it’s called a felony and an appropriate prison sentence before they get deported again.

This is the least any sanctuary city should be doing. Clear out the homes, schools, businesses, hotels, restaurants, etc. to make space and accommodations for these dreamers, these heroic pioneers fleeing their homelands for the American dream. Starting with voters who put the sanctuary policies in place.

Looks like 2019 virtue signaling is gonna bite the burbs in the ass too. ;)

Pritzker signs measures to help, protect illegal immigrants in Illinois​


Pritzker said the law was timely because of President Donald Trump’s announcement earlier this month that ICE would round up illegal immigrants.

“And it’s just the latest in a long line of attacks that immigrants have been forced to contend with since the day that Donald Trump announced his candidacy four years ago,” Pritzker said.

I'd see it as common sense .. migrant = illegal.
Migrant doesn't mean illegal immigrant though. Migrant means...or used to mean..person here legally on a VISA to work seasonally in the US. But since that is one of or the most common ways people end up with an illegal status...I can't really say you are wrong.
 
If those suburbs declared themselves "sanctuary suburbs," let them have it, good and hard.
But now that reality is smacking them in their “progressive” face, they are belatedly learning that “woke” comes at a heavy price. Maybe they are actually learning.

Part of good governance of states and cities is for the elected officials to admit when they have been wrong. Part of that is to make the moves needed to undo their past mistakes.

Pritzker needs to open his home to migrants. Anything less is racist and xenophobic.
