"Chicago Suburbs Implement Measures Amid Rising Migrant Drop-Off Challenges"

Chicago suburbs are proposing ordinances to regulate the unannounced dropoff of migrants by buses, a response to Texas sending thousands of undocumented immigrants to the area. These policies would require bus operators to coordinate with local authorities and provide detailed plans for the care of the migrants. Violations could result in hefty fines. The measures come as Chicago struggles to accommodate the influx, with over 14,700 migrants in city-run shelters and more than 29,000 arrivals since August 2022. Suburbs like Woodstock, Joliet, Buffalo Grove, and Hinsdale are voting on these regulations to manage the situation more effectively.
