Chicago Migrant Crisis, The Inn of Chicago Lease

Chicago officials report that 41 buses of migrants arrived in a single week, with thousands sleeping in police stations and airports. The city has leased "The Inn of Chicago" on the Miracle Mile to serve as a shelter, despite reports of criminal activity and drug sales at the site. The state is also providing up to $9,000 in rental assistance over six months, along with "starter kits" for new apartments, causing tension among local residents.
