Chicago officials expect a new wave of migrants to arrive in the city via bus from Texas border towns ahead of the Democratic National Convention next week.
The mayor of Chicago is warning that thousands of migrants could arrive in the city ahead of the Democratic National Convention.
While previous estimates of over 20,000 migrants arriving in the city seem to have been assuaged, Mayor Brandon Johnson’s administration still expects several hundred migrants ahead of the convention — arrivals via bus that Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s office has confirmed.
« Until President Biden and Border Czar Harris step up and do their jobs to secure the border, Texas will continue busing migrants to sanctuary cities across the country like Chicago to provide much-needed relief to our overwhelmed border towns », Abbott’s office told the Daily Mail this week.
