Activist Andre Smith from South Side Chicago challenged the city’s sanctuary status, blaming Mayor Brandon Johnson for the migrant crisis and advocating for a recall of the mayor.
He emphasized that “illegal” should not be made “legal” and criticized the use of taxpayer money to house migrants in defunct schools.
Smith plans to run for the Illinois State House and suggested a popular referendum on Chicago’s sanctuary status.
“Seeing our homeless on the [streets] and crime is at an all-time high, you know you can’t make ‘illegal’ ‘legal’ no matter… how you do it,” Smith said.
“In the community that I was born in, which is called Woodlawn in the city of Chicago, I did get arrested. I heard that they were bringing the migrants in on a CTA bus that was paid for by taxpayers’ money… So I stood in front of the bus, and I refused for the illegal migrants to get into the Wadsworth School,” he said.
“A lot of schools closed because of lack of funding. And how do you think those children feel now that they’re driving past and walking past the schools that they were rejected from that now, migrants are living in?” Smith asked.
Smith also praised Naperville Councilman Josh McBroom for his understanding of the migrant crisis.
