Chicago prioritizes new immigrants over its own residents

[protectionist]

It can't be denied Mayor Brandon Johnson and the Chicago City Council have made their priorities clear: immigrants over residents. This can only be concluded as $100 Million has been spent on the immigrant crisis, since January (10,000 new immigrants having arrived since last year) . $51 Million has been approved for immigrant housing, money which will last only until the end of the month, and then Chicago will be right back in the same situation (or worse as Biden keeps letting more & more immigrants in).

So what do Chicago residents have to say about all this ? (sanctuary city policy). Without a doubt, they don't like it and they have been making thir objections heard at city hall. . Fox Chicago reported, “Several groups in Chicago are asking how the city can suddenly come up with millions of dollars for new visitors, while local communities remain neglected.” Multiple people had to be escorted out of the meeting, for their vocal opposition, and Mayor Brandon Johnson had to restore order after it became too raucous.

The sentiment behind the opposition makes sense. Chicago is a city that already has a million different problems. In 2022, crime spiked by 41%, and although shootings have actually slightly dropped in recent years, Chicago is still one of the top 10 cities when it comes to murders per capita. Just last weekend, 60 people were shot, and 12 were killed in holiday violence. There is also a significant homelessness problem, and dozens of schools in Chicago report zero students proficient in math or reading. Businesses are leaving the city at an alarming rate, all while it looks like taxes are about to become even more burdensome in order to raise additional revenue.
In other words, Chicago is a complete mess right now.

So why would the city fathers choose waves of immigrants over their own longtime residents ? Maybe it's the same reason why these immigrants are being allowed in by Biden and by Chicago officials > VOTES. Could it be that the longtime residents are simply taken for granted as secure automatic votes, while the immigrants are seen as new additional votes ? Yeah, could be.

Chicago prioritizes new immigrants over its own residents

Since last year, upwards of 10,000 immigrants have arrived in Chicago, most of them bused there by Texas officials through no choice of their own. This has presented a challenge for Chicago, which has made itself a “sanctuary city.” Wednesday night, in order to deal with the influx, the Chicago...

I suppose they can bus them back to Texas and drop them in front of the governor's mansion.

I suppose they can bus them back to Texas and drop them in front of the governor's mansion.

Or kick them the fuck out of the country and say "come back when you go through the immigration process and become a citizen and speak English".

Chicago is doing exactly what the Democrats are doing. Let illegal immigrants flood the country and take away food, clothing, shelter and medical resources from poor American citizens.
