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.
