    Ilegal aliens upset with the UFW hiring temp workers.

    Summary: The United Farm Workers union (UFW) has signed an agreement with the state of Michoacan in Mexico to recruit and hire LEGAL workers with 6 month temp. worker visas. Well, the illegal aliens who are currently working in the San Joaquin Valley in California are mad because they know they will be displaced and there won't be a need to "legalize" them.


    PARTIAL TRANSLATION FROM:
    http://www.mixtecahoy.com/mixtecahoy/no ... &seccion=1


    San JoaquÃ*n Valley, California. - Migrants of the San JoaquÃ*n Valley reacted with deception and anger upon realizing the agreement that the Union of Agricultural Workers of America (UFW) signed with the government of Michoacán to recruit and obtain temporary worker visas for migrants known as the H-2A that permits them to work for 6 months in agriculture very similar to the bracero program of the 40s, 50s, and 60s.

    In April, Arturo Rodriguez, president of the UFW, travelled to Michoacán to sign the pact of cooperation so that at least 20 thousand migrants from Michoacan can enter the United States legaly to work in agriculture. The governor of the state Leonel Godoy and the holder of the Office of the secretary of the Migrant, Alma Griselda Valencia, promised to recruit and to choose the migrants inmunicipalities with the most marginalization in the state.

    "Many have arrived from Mexico with work visas and the undocumented Mexicans have been displaced even though we have been working here for years expecting an opportunity to legalize ourselves" added Santiago JoaquÃ*n Peral, immigrant from Michoacan, Mexico who lives in Turlock California, who has just returned from his native Santiago Tangamandapio and comments that he has already paid 500 pesos to begin the process of obtaining a visa.

    Teresa MartÃ*nez, activist from Stockton who coordinated recently a letter campaign opposed to federal changes to the H2-A program, considers that to revive a new bracero program without consulting the migrants that are here is a lack of respect to whom already face a daily struggle to compete for the few jobs in agriculture. "This will divide us more and will create different classes of migrant workers and it will bring new abuses".

    For Miguel Robles, Coordinator of the Alliance for the Rights of the Immigrants in San Francisco, says that these agreements create the sectorización of the immigrant movement. Why don't they defend the legalization of the undocumented workers that are already here?" and adds "this pact promotes a wave of new workers that will replace those who are already here even the ones that already have papers".

    The majority of the immigrants believe that those who signed this agreement did it as a shameless defense of their interests which does nothing but promote the deportation and marginalization of workers lacking identity papers.

    LOL......but where's your compassion? They just want to work and make a living for their families. Lazy, illegal, racist, protectionist,,,they are human beings too....they have a right to work.....more of a right because they came legally.

    I would not be at all surprised if NCLR, LULAC and MALDEF tried to get this program cancelled.
    I support enforcement and see its lack as bad for the 3rd World as well. Remittances are now mostly spent on consumption not production assets. Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

    How does an illegal alien apply for a temporary work visa? That would be an amnesty of sorts because it would be temporarily legalizing an illegal.

    Summary: The United Farm Workers union (UFW) has signed an agreement with the state of Michoacan in Mexico to recruit and hire LEGAL workers with 6 month temp. worker visas. Well, the illegal aliens who are currently working in the San Joaquin Valley in California are mad because they know they will be displaced and there won't be a need to "legalize" them.
    Haven't the illegal aliens been paying attention? Corporate America has no loyalty to America or Americans, so what makes the illegals think American businesses and/or labor unions would show loyalty to them? Greed doesn't leave much room for loyalty.

    HAHAHAHAHAHA ohhh the irony of it all!

    Illegal aliens had better wise up to the fact their days are numbered. It's time to displace illegal aliens back to their home countries. NO AMNESTY! The LEGAL temp workers will take over their jobs and their employers will need to pay them a living wage and house them, not us!. Make sure theyt leave their overly fertile women at home!
