Illegal Immigrants In Chicago Head Home – “American Dream Doesn’t Exist”


Illegal immigrants who were sent to Chicago from Texas are packing their bags and heading home.

Chicago and many sanctuary cities are running out of funds to support the hordes of illegal immigrants being sent to their cities.

Now, the immigrants want to go home.

Fox News has more on the story:

Chicago migrants are beginning to move back to Venezuela as the city runs out of resources to house and support illegal immigrants.

The Chicago Tribune reported on the account of Michael Castejon, who migrated with his wife and stepdaughter from Venezuela to find a better life. However, after several months, the family suffered from homelessness, a lack of job opportunities and no access to better education. By early November, they had requested tickets back to their home country.

“The American Dream doesn’t exist anymore,” Castejon said. “There’s nothing here for us.”

The report suggested that Castejon was not the only migrant who felt that way. As the city grows colder, many are requesting tickets to other cities or even other countries to avoid sleeping on the streets during the winter.

“How many more months of living in the streets will it take? No, no more. It’s better that I leave. At least I have my mother back home,” Castejon said.

The American dream is alive and well.

However, you have to be an American, and you have to work hard to achieve it.

Many of these immigrants believe they are just going to walk into our country and reap the benefits without working a day.

The New York Post has more on the story:

Castejon and his family were among numerous disheartened asylum-seekers who have decided to leave Chicago in recent weeks as the weather in the Windy City has grown colder and wetter, the paper found.

Some suggested that they had been drawn to Chicago after being wrongly led to believe that they could be swiftly granted asylum status and a work permit, paving the way for a better life.

“We didn’t know things would be this hard,” Castejon said. “I thought the process was faster.”

Others said they have realized that Chicago’s limited resources have been depleted by waves of migrants that have overwhelmed the Democrat-led sanctuary city over the past 16 months, leaving the latest newcomers with nothing but scraps.

Many people wish to migrate to America legally but have to wait a long time because our government is more concerned with granting citizenship to the millions of illegal immigrants pouring in.
