Mayor Brandon Johnson plans to relocate over 1,000 immigrants who are waiting for a spot in city-operated shelters from Chicago police stations to camps, as hundreds continue to arrive from the southern border.
Johnson offered a preview of his initiative to establish"more suitable" camps with large tents for over 1,600 immigrants, with the goal of relocating them out of police buildings by the winter. This is the latest move by Johnson's administration as law enforcement authorities and community members continue to express their opposition to the growing number of immigrants in the Windy City.
Fraternal Order of Police members have criticized the Johnson administration for the number of people staying in police stations. President John Catanzara, a vocal opponent of Johnson, once called the immigrant situation"unacceptable and ridiculous working conditions." “So the sacrifices that will be required in this moment will be necessary from all of us, every single level of government,” Johnson said at a news conference unrelated to immigrant relocation when asked about whether additional revenue will be needed.
Asking for increased taxpayer funds to support relocating immigrants comes at a time when Johnson is already facing anger from Chicago residents who are growing tired of housing immigrants and wish financial and physical resources would go toward city issues.
