Two Chicago suburbs rejected busloads of immigrants that arrived from El Paso, Texas, over the past week as the city and Illinois as a whole continue to face an influx of illegal immigrants from the southern border.
Several buses arrived at the Metra stations in Cicero, Illinois, and Rosemont, Illinois, near the O'Hare International Airport's remote parking area, according to the Chicago Tribune. Rosemont police allowed the immigrants to get off the bus if there was someone picking them up, but officers threatened to impound the bus and arrest the driver for endangering the passengers if he let them out, Mayor Brad Stephens said.
This is the latest display of suburbs resisting the increase of illegal immigrants trickling into towns from Chicago, where almost 26,000 immigrants have arrived since August. With most of them homeless, the immigrants have taken shelter at police stations and the airport.
Suburbs such as Schaumburg, Illinois, and Elk Grove Village, Illinois, have passed ordinances preventing illegal immigrants from being housed in hotels. Elk Grove officials also passed an ordinance preventing immigrants from residing in the village without a doctor's certification that they don't carry infectious diseases such as malaria and tuberculosis. The village has blocked its many factories and shopping centers from housing immigrants, bought a hotel that immigrants were staying in, and demolished it, according to the local newspaper.

Wow, they even ought a hotel that immigrants were staying in, and demolished it.
That's some serious xenophobia!
This is blatantly illegal...................
Let ‘em camp out on Prikster’s horse farm in Wisconsin - where he sent his family during supposed lockdown.
Filthy racists!
A deep blue sanctuary state rejecting the lovely, deserving, downtrodden that they claim to support. Force them to take immigrants into their homes.
I heard that all the Hyatt Hotels at the airport. We’re going to accept the immigrants. After all Governor Pritzker wants to get paid for housing them.

It’s located in Rosemont
Governor Pritzker would be happy to house up in Rosemount at the Hyatt Regency
$$$$
One village purchased a hotel that housed immigrants and subsequently demolishing it....that’ll do it!
Bunch of racists up there in Chi-town.....
> impound the bus and arrest the driver...
The only people they can punish are citizens and legal entities. Illegals are just kinda there.
Take them there and tell …… freebies over there
Impounding the bus ‘talk’ is BS. I would imagine if you walked up to a Greyhound bus and started asking for ID....75-percent of people are Americans and most probably have a marginal ID situation. Threatening ‘law’? This is how crazy things have become.
“Two Chicago suburbs rejected busloads of immigrants that arrived from El Paso, Texas”
Then let them out about a mile down the road. They elected Turban Durbin and Daffy Duckworth to the Senate, so they are part of the problem.
You do not want to piss off the residents of Rosemont. Most of them are “made”.
Even Governor Creosote isn’t dumb enough to screw with them.

drop them off at every home that has one of those signs that say
no human is illegal
Well the DOJ should immediately look into this blatant xenophobia and racism - and obtain a court order to mandate that Chicago MUST take in “refugees” if they show up at their doorstep.
They are “Sanctuary City” after all.
bought a hotel that immigrants were staying in, and demolished it,
He should have left the keys in the bus and got out and walked to the closest restaurant for a bit to eat. However, the Police Officer Threatening Criminal Arrest and Prosecution of a Bus Driver for not Holding these People against their will (FELONY KIDNAPPING) should have got the cop a One Way ticket to the Big House in HandCuffs .
