Ultra-liberal Chicago suburb Oak Park kicking out migrants in January

Every metropolitan area has that suburb dominated by virtue signaling liberals. Chicago, being, for now, America's third-largest metro region, has several.

Oak Park, among tough completion, stands out. It is filled with "Coexist" and "We Welcome Everyone" yard signs, usually firmly placed in the grass in front of the suburb's most expensive homes. Apartment and condo dwellers make do with similar bumper stickers.

Earnest Hemingway, who was born in Oak Park, supposedly said of the western Chicago suburb that it was a town of "broad lawns and narrow minds."

As the saying goes: The more things change...well you know.

Well, it turns out leftist Oak Park doesn't welcome everyone.

From ABC Chicago:

Just three and a half weeks ago the Village of Oak Park agreed to allocate an additional $1 million to continue housing a group of 160 migrants that were brought in from Chicago's 15th police station during a Halloween day snowfall. With that funding set to run out by February 6, the village sent out a letter to the migrants Wednesday telling them they must move out by the end of January. 

"They gave us the letters last night when we went to pick up our dinner," said Milagros de Marquez, who, along with her husband and three children, has been living at the Carleton Hotel for five weeks now. ABC7 Chicago is now streaming 24/7.

The hotel, the local YMCA and Grace Episcopal Church are the three locations migrants have been living at in Oak Park, so far, it appears the 25 men located at the church may be safe in terms of housing, but those who support them wonder whether the wraparound services they get from the village will continue.

"Mental health, physical help, immigration help, all that is key to keeping these men healthy and sane as these winter months come upon us," said Doug Luce of Grace Episcopal Church.

There are many big homes in Oak Park, probably with a spare bedroom or two. C'mon Oak Park. Put your virtue where your mouth is.
