‘How does this keep this country safe?’ asks labor leader

HOUSTON — 200 Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents swept up and arrested 166 workers at Action Rags,U.S.A., June 25, just north of the Houston Ship Channel here. Seventy were detained and the rest had to be released because they were U.S. citizens. Reports indicate that as many as 70 percent of those detained were women, 10 of whom were pregnant and most of whom were working to feed families.

Most of those arrested were from Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras.

The women rounded up in the raid were rag sorters earning extremely low pay and contending daily with dangerous working conditions including excessive heat.

Maria Lopez, a friend of some of those at the plant, told KHOU TV that “they didn’t have fans, they didn’t have AC. You could say it’s an oven in there.â€

ICE says it will release the ten women who are pregnant with orders to report to an immigration court.

HOLD UP! In a previous article there were only EIGHT pregnant women!!!!!! WTF, deport them first!

Do this country and its citizens a huge favor and deport these scofflaws before they drop anchor!

Deport them all! Quit using kid gloves here.

I dont feel sorry for these women. Go home and take your family with you! And for pete's sake, do it before you drop another illegal alien anchor baby!

I second that butterbean!!!! They can't leave soon enough for me.

So does this mean US citizen's children whose parent has broken the law and incarcerated will be traumatized the rest of their lives ? Funny how they are never mentioned.

These women should NOT be allowed to leave their children here,they need to be with their parents.We need a new law making them take their anchors with them.

Deport Them!

Adding insult to injury, the system further punishes them for their hard work by subjecting them to unreasonable immigration laws.

Hey, I'm a good driver and I think speed limits are unreasonable but that doesn't give me the right to speed.

Socialist Rags always print this crap.

raid are known to cause emotional trauma in the victims.

Victims? Not!

People who are exposed to severe life trauma...

And what does this have to do with an immigraton raid?

All this drama makes me dizzy.

When the parents are deported children remain in foster homes in this country, resulting in orphaned children with living parents.

Only because the parents chose to leave them behind.
