In a series of developments that have sparked controversy, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has been at the center of a heated debate over the allocation of city funds towards a race-based program aimed at providing support to illegal immigrants. The program, which has directed $17 million of tax dollars over the past 8 months, specifically benefits non-White small businesses by funding them to provide free food for illegal aliens. This initiative has led to significant backlash, with criticisms highlighting the exclusion of white-owned businesses from qualifying for the program and has been described by Mayor Johnson as capturing 'the soul of Chicago.' The situation has further escalated with some members of the Chicago Democrats turning against Mayor Johnson, reflecting a growing divide over the city's approach to handling the migrant issue. Additionally, the failure of a border security bill in Congress and the call for sanctuary city status in NYC due to a migrant crisis underscore the broader national debate on immigration.
