This is obviously such a huge crisis not only in Illinois but in the country as a whole. Is the right way to solve this problem to have every small city in your state welcome groups of people? Maybe, in the short term that would help the overcrowding in Chicago. But is it a long-term solution? No, we all know that isn't a sustainable long-term solution.

Would you support your small town in Illinois volunteering to take on some of these migrants?
