"Chicago's Initial Migrant Shelter Evictions Yield Minimal Results"
Chicago's Mayor Brandon Johnson faced confusion and minimal evictions as only three out of 11,000 shelter residents were removed on the first day of migrant evictions. The city's shelter policy, aimed at saving costs, has been delayed multiple times, leading to uncertainty and frustration among migrants and volunteers. Exemptions for eviction include medical issues, pregnancy, and the process of leaving or securing housing, leaving around 2,000 people, mostly men, to be evicted in waves by the end of April. The process is slow, and officials expect more visible effects in the coming weeks and months.
