Lightfoot said Colorado 'must stop busing migrants to Chicago' in a Saturday letter to Gov. Jared Polis.

Around 36,400 asylum-seekers have gone through New York City’s emergency intake system in the last year, the letter said.

“The buses have arrived, without any regard to either city’s ability to appropriately shelter them,” they wrote. “Although we share the concerns of accommodating the flood of asylum-seekers, overburdening other cities is not the solution.” He did not immediately respond to the Tribune’s request for comment Saturday afternoon, though he has previously said busing helps migrants by getting them to their desired destinations.

Dis' raciss' y'all !

Please let me know how this turns out lol. I'm sure the governor of Colorado is getting on top of this as I type. See what happens when you call your city a safe haven,did they not think that this shit was going to happen?

So a left wing propaganda wing of the democrat party reports a virtue signaler is upset because another virtue signaler is upset at being called out so dumps the situation on her taxpayers. The left wing outlet says

And when they don't listen to her demands, then what? Another letter?

I demand the mayor do something about the crime.. see, demanding stuff doesn’t do anything in reality.

I thought this is a sanctuary city? 😂 worst mayor ever. Literally destroyed this city.

hahaha

Chicago residents demand Lori Lightfoot stop being mayor of Chicago.

She should be writing a letter to the President about this issue, or redact the sanctuary city policy. The porous open border affects all states and the buck stops with the executive branch.

chicagosmayor U wanted them stood at plenty of press conferences like a 🤡 playing for the cameras - Let me guess u realized that they are straining city resources for actual tax paying Chicagoans

Chicago is a sanctuary city. We should not be turning any migrants away. We should be welcoming all of them. That is what Chicagoans and the people of Illinois voted for.

Sad because Chicago has a similar crime rate to the countries they are leaving. Same reasons. Poor politicians, poverty and poor education.

No one does......close the borders.

Adequately handle them ….tell that to Texas . Everyone wants to be a sanctuary city ..until it’s time to be a sanctuary city

Didn’t she beg for this? How do you claim to be a sanctuary for all and then cry about it

Sue GovofCO, they're not the federal govt therefore have no legal standing 'trafficking' undocumented people anywhere.

Wtf is with all these states playing hot potato with migrants like they aren't humans?

Bus them back!

Oooohhhh… that ought to stop it. Come February. You are doomed. LoriLightfoot

Thought Chicago was a sanctuary city? Was that just talk?

I thought Chicago was a sanctuary city? Or was that just talk?

Why didn't the DerelictMayor LoriLightfoot send the letter to POTUS VP & SecMayorkas & tell them to close the border & stop sending the illegal aliens anywhere in the country? Her priorities are screwed up as usual.

chicagosmayor should have had this conversation with KamalaHarris when she was in town last week - close the border

No we are a sanctuary city Reap what you sow Words have meaning and consequences Can't wait to meet you when your just a citizen

keep sending them lol 😂 she running for re-election 🤡🤡🤡🤡

Uhhhhh neither does CO. 🤷‍♀️🤡

Chicago should send guns and Cook Co criminals in exchange.

50 more busses a day!

Keep sending them. They are a sanctuary city. They are not even dealing with what 1/4 of the border towns are.

ANYTHING but stop illegal immigration at the border.

😂😂😂😂😂

💩 mayor

Why ? What’s a matter, before she was all for it…what has changed ? Hmmm, maybe a pending election loss perhaps ?

Chicago police union endorses Paul Vallas for mayorChicago’s Fraternal Order of Police has endorsed Paul Vallas in his campaign for mayor, union president John Catanzara announced Saturday. Only two candidates sought the group’s endorsement: Vallas and businessman Willie Wilson. That you for giving me another reason NOT to vote for Republican Paul Vallas That fact that only two candidates asked for the FOP endorsement speaks volumes. There are only two viable candidates for mayor IMO. And I’m voting for PaulVallas No mention of Paul Vallas' public appearances with Awake IL, a group which associates with the Proud Boys, which is responsible for hate crimes in the Chicagoland area And at a time when the Chicago Police are facing national scrutiny for not firing a lying PB. Not a good look.
