What is a sanctuary city? As more migrants in Chicago arrive, most residents want an end to their sanctuary city status, a M3 Strategies poll says.As more buses carrying migrants arrive every day, Chicago's designation as a sanctuary city is waning among likely voters, according to a new poll conducted by M3 Strategies.
Podgorski said 46% of those polled said no more sanctuary city, 39% said Chicago should remain one and 14% were unsure. Chicago residents were polled all over city."It was 600+ likely voters. The method was SMS to web, all text message and web-based surveys, and we polled only folks who voted in the most recent municipal election," Podgorski said.
It was Mayor Harold Washington in 1985 who issued an executive order, designating Chicago as a sanctuary city. It was meant to prohibit city employees, including police, from enforcing federal immigration laws. Ramirez-Rosa said people against a sanctuary city must remember its original purpose. As for minority voters, including Latinos, Ramirez-Rosa said the poll should have asked the questions differently.
