Mt. Vernon Officials address migrants coming to Southern Illinois – WSILTV (Harrisburg)

Johnson County Sheriff Pete Sopczak asked his county's board to pass an ordinance requiring prior notification before any migrant is dropped off. Johnson County would be following in the footsteps of Aurora, which passed an ordinance requiring at least five days' notice to the city for a bus planning to transport migrants. “You can't just show up at two o'clock in the morning when no one's around and dump 'em off. And now what are these guys gonna do,” Sopczak asked.
