There is growing concern about how the city of Chicago is dealing with housing an influx of migrants coming in from other states.
More than 7,400 asylum-seekers have traveled to the city since August 2022, and even more are expected in the weeks ahead.
"People from the police station and churches in Chicago have helped us with food, coats, treated us very nicely," he told ABC7 in Spanish. "They're very secure, but this is not a place to have a child living," said Baltazar Enriques of the Little Village Community Council. "Today we're here to see how many families are here so we can bring them survival packages."
Migrant families are again flocking to Chicago by the hundreds for its sanctuary acceptance, only to find there's no official city spot for them to stay.
