Tio Hardiman, the Executive Director for Violence Interrupters, is calling for Mayor Brandon Johnson to issue a moratorium on migrants in the city of Chicago.
The Windy City has been under the spotlight recently as one of many sanctuary cities now struggling to handle a massive influx of migrants. In the past year-and-a-half alone, tens of thousands of illegal immigrants have arrived and sought shelter.
In order to accommodate the growing number of migrants, Chicago spent hundreds of millions of dollars constructing shelters and providing vouchers despite backlash from the local community.
The thousands of Chicago citizens that are still poor and homeless, Hardiman remarked, have since become an “afterthought.”
