  • Chicagoans start to organize relief efforts for victims of Mexico City earthquake

        Chicagoans are coming together to help the victims of a deadly 7.1     magnitude earthquake in Mexico City. The city helped victims of Hurricanes     Harvey and Irma in the U.S. and now many are willing to help Mexico City in any way.     “Hopefully, we can work with the consulate, where we can probably ask     President Trump for some aid; maybe to put a moratorium on the deportations     right now as well, because we have a crisis in Mexico,” activist Esteban     Burgoa told CBS Chicago.
