Thread: Town of 2,273 wonders: What happens to us now?

BINGO! That's why we must support the SAVE Act

BINGO, BINGO BINGO!
This story can be used as an example as to why we need the SAVE Act.
Nice thinking we now have another bullet in our pistol.

Any business which was raided and was found to have been employing illegals, should be required by law to implement E-Verify into their business pratices if they want to continue to stay in business. It should be part of the penality for employing illegals, since they have demonstrated they are haing problems obeying the law in this regard.

BINGO! That's why we must support the SAVE Act.

The SAVE Act will make E-Verify mandatory for employers like Agriprocessors Inc., which does not seem like a bad idea given the fact they apparently need some help in this department.

Those arrested Monday include 314 men and 76 women. Fifty-six detainees - mostly women with young children - have been released under the supervision of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE. Most were required to wear an electronic monitoring device around one ankle.

Music to my ears!!! I think ICE may have finally learned their lesson on the released detainees disappearing and never showing up for their court dates. Ankle bracelets should be used EVERY time an illegal is released due to "humanitarian reasons"!!!

Go ICE!!!!

wouldn't be surprised if GAL the owners of the illegal alien filled apartment complex were related to the Hasidic family that owns AGriprocessing. There are many profiteers of illegal immigration in Postville and other communities like it.. AGriprocessors like SWIFT will not go out of business any time soon...after the raids at Swift ....Americans were lining up to fill those jobs. The same will happen here....Agriprocessors only hired through word-of-mouth via the chain and network of illegal aliens, their family members and probably sleazy "third-party" labor contractors. Now, they'll be forced to do normal, legal, employment recruitment, including posting, job fairs, etc. to fill the positions.

Agriprocessors, the nation’s largest kosher meat-processing plant...

I'm not up on Jewish rules and traditions but aren't kosher products only supposed to be handled by jews??

Your exactly right legalatina! These sleazy "third-party contractors" are all over the place and rarely have a legitimate website or business contact that one could inquire about seeking employment. Businees is done through word of mouth and illegals quickly learn who has connections with the big ag and livestock industries.

Let offer this funny little footnote to all the above - was sleuthing around, and uncovered this job ad (which, IMHO, appears to be highly related):

OK everyone who has a fax machine, print this article with a fax cover sheet saying this is exactly why we need the Save Act voted on, passed, signed and enforced. Nothing left out in conference PASS IT.

Ha! The twisted story gets even better...

They don't even have a location listed as pertaining to the advertised job.
I'd bet they aren't at all serious about trying to fill it with domestic US workers....

I thought so too. The company is going to take a huge hit in the pocket, in more ways than one. The owner and his sons should be charged, fined and jailed!

As for the job ad, sickening! 15 years ago, my cousin was making $21 an hour at a meat packing/processing plant, now it's $10?!?!?!?!?! Criminal!
