Now that Illinois is facing the arrival of so many migrants, Gov. J.B. Pritzker should use his executive powers to take decisive action.
Chicago’s sanctuary city status, along with the rhetoric from its mayor, has made the city a mecca for migrants. Some Southern governors have treated this as an open invitation to transport migrants to the city. More than 20,000 migrants have come to Chicago in the past 14 months, the Tribune recently reported. It has been left for Chicago to bear the brunt of the new arrivals to the state.
• Illinois should cooperate with the federal government on all matters of public safety and national security, sharing all available information on migrants, and be prepared to deport those who have criminal backgrounds or commit crimes while here. This is crucial to address concerns about violent criminals and illicit narcotics entering the city. • Illinois should bypass obstacles to integrate screened migrants more quickly into the workforce.
