Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker is making a plea to President Joe Biden as the migrant crisis in the state continues to intensify.
In a public letter to the president, Pritzker calls for more support as the state works to find housing for asylum seekers who are arriving in Illinois every week.
Pritzker says that the aid and help Illinois has been providing to the migrants has not been matched with federal support. Due to the massive amount of migrants coming into Chicago, many refugees are now sleeping in police stations and sidewalks, which Pritzker says cannot be maintained. Pritzker also suggested to Biden that there should be a single person in the federal government who can lead the efforts at the border. He stated that there are too many different federal contacts that do not coordinate with one another.
