There is a humanitarian crisis developing in Chicago. As temperatures drop into the 40s, thousands of migrants have been unable to find room indoors to sleep and are forced to camp outside — sometimes with no tents and no blankets.

Promise the world. Come to Sanctuary city Chicago. We love you all and will take good care of you. Yeah, right.
