Amid worker shortage, Chicago hotels want to be able to hire migrants more easily – CBS2 (Chicago)

Proponents argue the proposal would be a win for migrants in Chicago, and for local hotels which are reporting more than 2,100 job openings. "It's a perfect storm of the highest business levels we've ever seen, but then labor shortages throughout the city," said Juan Leyva, general manager of the London House.

Hmm, here’s a suggestion. Illegals have to do their own upkeep at area hotels such as washing their bedding and laundry, preparing their hotel food, emptying trash, cleaning their bathrooms, etc instead of just checking in at a Hyatt and forwarding the bill to Springfield. This would decrease the public charge portion picked up by tax payers.
