Advocates fear that some will not show up for their check-ins, which also puts them en route to deportation.

Undocumented immigrants pay ~$23.7B in taxes/yr & don't receive these benefits ($12B federal; $11.7B state/local) — a taxation without representation.
💰 Billionaires are the ones behind high prices and limited resources for the rest of us. In contrast, immigrants contribute. #ImmigrantsAreChicago
