Greater than $1 billion has been spent on well being care prices, a minimum of $120 million in FY24 for English as a Second Language (ESL) wants in public faculties, and nearly $900 million has been spent on housing, meals, and authorized sources.

In an interview with Fox News, Hardiman pressured that hundreds of Chicago residents are nonetheless poor and homeless and have turn out to be an “afterthought.”
“The fact is that for all of the poor folks that have lived in Chicago, there has by no means been such a effort to try to discover sources. I’m not speaking about Black, White, Latino. Individuals dwelling right here already as authorized residents. Think about a teenager simply getting their first condo, their first automotive, how lengthy it takes a teenager to really accomplish that ambition. Now you’re giving $9,000 lease vouchers to folks that aren’t even authorized residents. Take into consideration that for a minute. It’s not proper. It’s not proper in any respect,” Hardiman instructed Fox Information Digital. “I’m not saying that individuals must get a handout both. I wish to make that clear. However for those who’re going to offer out a handout, give it to the folks which might be already right here which might be struggling. That ought to make sense to anyone.”
Though Johnson has tried responsible Texas Governor Greg Abbott for the mess Joe Biden has created, Hardiman has recommended the answer is easy.
“It’s all about simply abiding by the legal guidelines of the land proper now. On the federal degree, we have to actually adhere to the legal guidelines of the US. Individuals have to return to the US the authorized means, not the unlawful means. And we shouldn’t be making concessions for those that have come over right here illegally. If the federal authorities would simply abide by the regulation that’s on the books, we’ll be all proper.”
It’s no surprise that there are those that imagine 2024 is the time for Republicans and Trump to flip Chicago purple.
