The latest figures from the City of Chicago’s spending dashboard show the city has spent more than $400 million over the past two years on migrants – with the bulk of that money going to private companies that helped forge lease agreements or provided staffing for migrants shelters.

NBC Chicago’s Bennett Haeberle reports.

    Mayor Johnson should be held accountable for taking nearly half a billion dollars of taxpayer money away from chicago citizens to indulge illegals.

    Ran into 4 migrants from Nigeria. They were driving a brand new 60k car purchased with tax payer money. Americans are struggling to eat for God's sake.
