After a long trek to Chicago from Venezuela and other South and Central American countries, hundreds of migrants have landed at O'Hare Airport in recent weeks to find overcrowded, unsanitary and unpleasant conditions.
Among the complaints in the airport shelter: poor quality food like instant ramen; lack of access to health care, showers and laundry; inadequate bedding; and no support for placing children in schools.
The migrants arrive at O'Hare after being flown from Texas and other states.
