#2,367 - Mayor Brandon Johnson doubles down on misinformation when asked about Chicago migrant spending
Manage episode 426547273 series 2792715
The latest figures from the City of Chicago’s spending dashboard shows the city has spent more than $400 million over the past two years on migrants – with the bulk of that money going to private companies that helped forge lease agreements or provided staffing for migrants shelters.
Since August of 2022, more than 42,000 migrants have made their way to Chicago.
The lion’s share of the money – nearly $253 million – has gone to one private company, Kansas-based Favorite Healthcare Staffing, which staffs the city-run migrant shelters.
More than $76 million - $30 million of which came directly from Chicago tax dollars - has gone to Louisville, Ky.-based Equitable Social Solutions, according to the city’s cost dashboard.
