from In the Loop with Sasha-Ann Simons

More than 47,000 migrants have arrived in Chicago since August 2022, but numbers have decreased significantly in recent months after President Biden issued an executive order that limited who could cross the border. Nevertheless, many migrants already here still need long-term housing. Reset takes stock of the migrant crisis in our city and how it has evolved over time with WBEZ immigration reporter Adriana Cardona Maguidad and Mimi Guiracocha, Doctor of Nursing Practice specializing in public health and mutual aid volunteer with the 11th Ward Free Store.
