Call for hearing(s) to review City's response to immigrant populations being marginalized
Auto-generated summary
Chicago's resolution, proposed by Alderman Pat Dowell on December 13, 2023, calls for a hearing on marginalized immigrant communities, recognizing the city's vitality rooted in immigrant strength, per Mayor Washington's Welcoming City Ordinance. The city, facing an influx of Hispanic migrants escaping violence and instability, provides resources, but non-Hispanic immigrants from Africa and the Caribbean lack equivalent services. The resolution urges culturally sensitive services, City Key opportunities, and a review by the City Council Committee on Immigrant and Refugee Rights to integrate migrants into Chicago’s 77 communities.
