Chicago Mayor gives illegal aliens $9,000 for rent. What about homeless americans?

Of course this violates federal law , specifically section 1324 title 8 but nobody cares about that. Mayor says the program is for 6 months but it will be extended forever.

oct 16 2023 Chicago is giving $9,000 in rental assistance to migrants in need of temporary housing - after it paid a medical firm a staggering $7.2million for staffing shelters for just one week, according to official records.

The Windy City is struggling with over 11,000 migrants in shelters and 4,000 staying in police stations and the O'Hare International Airport after more than 18,000 have arrived in the city in one year.

To free much-needed room in shelters, the state of Illinois is helping cover costs for temporary housing for migrants, including $9,000 in rental assistance over a six-month period, Chicago's deputy chief of staff Cristina Pacione-Zayas told Fox32. The funds include assistance with moving costs and a starter kit to furnish apartments.

The city has allocated $4 million to help migrants find temporary housing, and the state has contributed another $38 million. It's unclear how many migrants are currently benefiting from the program.

'That rent lasts for six months and ideally people would have started their legal process, secured legal work authorization and be able to sustain that apartment,' said Ald. Pacione-Zayas. 'I guess the payment toward the landlord is based on market rate, it's based on the configuration of the apartment. And so it varies from place to place.'

Section 1324 makes it a federal felony to encourage illegals to live here so this is clearly a violation - but nothing is done.

Just wait till the money trees die...which is imminent.

The economic supercrash is here.

It has already started.

Buckle Up.

This is so insane. Why do we beg other countries to dump their welfare trash on us? You have to figure this mayor is taking bribes from someone, probably mexico.

Mayor Johnson and JPV must be removed from office.
