City Council Meeting Erupts in Chaos Over Migrant Debate and Sanctuary City Issue

A City Council meeting in Chicago was forced into recess after an angry crowd disrupted proceedings during a heated debate on whether to place a referendum on the March ballot regarding the city's response to the migrant crisis. Mayor Brandon Johnson's allies attempted to pass their own version of a non-binding referendum but were shouted down by the crowd. The meeting was eventually recessed until November 16th. The public anger stems from efforts to silence voices and prevent people from having a say in the matter. The Council also voted to acquire a site for a temporary migrant camp.
