Glen Ellyn Village President, Mark Senak, has called for a Special Meeting of the Village Board on Feb. 26 to address the community's stance on permanently resettling undocumented immigrants in Glen Ellyn. Senak emphasized that the decision lies with the Village Board and underscored the importance of their collective input in determining the village's position.
Village of Roselle Mayor David Pileski has clarified that the community has not received any requests from Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson or Governor Pritzker regarding the city's illegal immigration crisis. Pileski also highlighted a crucial aspect of Roselle's position – as a non-home rule municipality, the village believes it lacks the legal authority to approve ordinances that impose certain restrictions or regulations related to the migrant issue.
