It was pathetic to see your rep.blabbering and blubbering as he made an unbelivable attempt to portray I.C.E. as the bad guys and the illegals as law-abiding citizens just doing their jobs.At one point these illegals were even referred to as AMERICAN workers.A slip of the tongue perhaps?
Does your union not understand that illegal workers are actually driving DOWN wages of American workers,besides taking jobs that Americans need and deserve?How on Earth can you defend that?
Corporations everywhere use this illegal, unlimited,foreign workforce to HOLD DOWN your wages and will continue to do so until the government begins to enforce our laws.
These raids were a start and the wish and hope of American citizens is that they will continue and increase their enforcement measures.Every company and organization that enables and encourages this illegal activity should be heavily penalized and pay large fines for their financial gains at the expense of legal American citizens.

My father was a coal miner for 30+ years. I'm sure he would agree with you. Great comments. Thanks for sharing them.

Well well well. Look at the list of what they call friend and allies.

I saw it too. I honestly thought the guy was going to break down into tears when talking about the breastfeeding babies. Never been part of a union, but was appauled when he didn't differentiate between American and illegal workers.
