Three Chicago alderpeople are calling for numerous resignations for the city officials involved in handling the ongoing migrant crisis after a plan to build a migrant encampment in Brighton Park was put on hold. But the mayor’s office said it was not taking the request seriously and asked for good faith collaboration with any official serious about addressing the humanitarian crisis.

On Tuesday, the state halted construction of a migrant tent encampment at the site, located at 38th and California, after the release of a lengthy environmental report showing the presence of mercury and other contaminants in the soil.
