    Firms Brace for Crackdown on Illegal Labor

    MIRIAM JORDAN

    As a crucial hearing looms on a planned government crackdown on illegal immigrants in the workplace, many businesses are scrambling to figure out how they will cope with an expected loss of illegal labor.

    A U.S. district court in San Francisco could decide as early as today whether the Social Security Administration can send out thousands of “no matchâ€

    In agriculture, about 70% of all workers are illegal immigrants, according to independent estimates, and an existing guest-worker program supplies less than 2% of the work force required each year.
    I heard only 2 percent of illegals even work in Ag jobs....so where is the problem...their is none!!!!! What it is, is that their Corp. Ags elitist buddies crying for cheap labor in all other industries...Man...how many lies are we going to have to listen to before this crap ends and we get our Country back where she belongs with WE THE PEOPLE...we will never stop fighting
    Never look at another flag. Remember, that behind Government, there is your country, and that you belong to her as you do belong to your own mother. Stand by her as you would stand by your own mother

    What Sippy and redbadger said, and...

    Another point I'd like to make, is that the author "Miriam Jordan" failed to acknowledge that the H2-A visa for Ag workers is UNLIMITED!.
    Her phrasing implies that existing guest-worker programs are insufficient - this could be not be farther from the truth. The reality is that existing guest-worker programs supply only 2% of ag workers is more about doing business 'quick and dirty'. Many other people in many different types of business do not have that luxury. Certain farmers don't want to be bothered by trivial things like following the law, paperwork, dealing with the housing and related concerns, etc.

    The judge hearing this was appointed by Clinton. I'll be pleasantly surprised if he rules in favor of this common sense enforcement measure.
