The corrected release follows:
In response to President Donald J. Trump’s recent remarks about conditions in Chicago, Dr. Anosh Ahmed, a Chicago-based physician and businessman, has publicly expressed agreement, citing increasing concerns around public safety, homelessness, and the effectiveness of city-level policies.
Speaking on the state of urban governance, Dr. Ahmed stated that the challenges facing Chicago require a reassessment of current approaches. “There is a disconnect between political messaging and what many residents experience day to day,” he said.
Escalating Violence Underscores Public Safety Concerns
According to recent city data, incidents of violent crime have continued to strain public resources and erode community confidence. Residents across neighborhoods have raised concerns about safety, citing increases in carjackings, assaults, and gun violence.
“Many neighborhoods are dealing with the breakdown of basic public safety,” said Dr. Ahmed. “These are issues that affect daily life and cannot be resolved through short-term political responses.”
Sanctuary City Policies Under Scrutiny
Dr. Ahmed also highlighted ongoing tension surrounding sanctuary city policy implementation. With increased migration placing pressure on shelters and municipal services, debates have intensified over how such programs are administered and sustained.
“The intent behind sanctuary policies may be humanitarian, but without clear infrastructure and long-term planning, both new arrivals and longtime residents can be negatively impacted,” he noted.
A Call for Policy Review and Accountability
A longtime supporter of Republican leadership, Dr. Ahmed emphasized that his statements reflect concern for governance outcomes rather than partisan alignment alone.
“This is not about political posturing—it’s about ensuring that decisions at the city level are producing measurable results for those most affected,” he said.
Dr. Ahmed pointed to the need for long-term, data-driven solutions and increased transparency in local decision-making. He also noted that multiple sectors, including healthcare, housing, and employment, are being affected by these compounded issues.
Civic Engagement and Community Investment
In addition to his public comments, Dr. Ahmed has been involved in healthcare and community development initiatives aimed at underserved neighborhoods. His efforts include reopening medical facilities and supporting job training and housing programs.
“These initiatives are not meant to replace public policy but to complement it where gaps exist,” he said. “Local investment should be part of a broader, inclusive strategy for community stability.”
