Volunteer leaders sent a letter this week to all 50 aldermen saying the crisis can't be shouldered by volunteers for much longer.
The group said one of the families they were working with is leaving the police station and heading to a shelter after 10 days.We are a group of 100+ neighbors and local volunteers who formed as a response to the humanitarian crisis we see playing out today in Chicago. We need to express our significant concerns regarding the surge in arriving migrants to our police stations.
In addition to our efforts, some of your own police officers are spending their personal money and days off also assisting these migrants. Just in the past couple days, numbers of new arrivals have surged, with some police districts reporting over 20 migrants in their lobbies, some of who are babies and young children. With the federal Title 42 ending on May 11, we are fearful of the reports of huge surges in new arrivals that the city is bracing for in just a few short weeks.
We demand our elected officials relieve us from the overwhelming work we have been doing in the absence of city, state and federal resources by immediately addressing the following action items: · Provide shower facilities and transportation for newly arrived migrants at least once a week while they await shelter placement

Olympic contestation is picking up online and starting to spill onto streets, because protesters are linking the Paris Games to unpopular pension reforms pushed through by French President Emmanuel Macron. A band of Olympic opponents who call themselves “un-volunteers' are surreptitiously working to infiltrate and disrupt next year’s Games by signing up as would-be Olympic volunteers. There also are small and sporadic protests targeting Olympic preparations. Olympic organizers say polling shows enduring strong support for the Paris Games. But critics of Macron want to disrupt the show to retaliate for his raising of France’s retirement age from 62 to 64.
