Default Illegal aliens caught on their way to work at a federal housing project

Illegal aliens caught on their way to work at a federal housing project
• December 28th, 2010 12:39 am ET
On Monday morning, state troopers pulled over a van with a broken windshield on the Pennsylvania Turnpike and discovered 10 illegal aliens inside the vehicle. According to Pennsylvania State Police Sgt. Anthony Deluca, three of the illegal aliens escaped during the traffic stop but were captured a short time later.
The nine Salvadoran nationals and one Honduran were all turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The illegal aliens were on their way from Maryland to work on a taxpayer-funded housing project in Jeannette, PA.
The federal project is being built by Homes Build Hope, a subsidiary of AdelphoiUSA.
Chad Ruffner, executive director of Homes Build Hope, told The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review that the workers were hired by a subcontractor, in this case, O.C. Cluss of Uniontown.
Ruffner said: “That's their crew. They check their papers every day. I've seen them checking in. They do that every day. I've seen them check them off.”
Ruffner then shifted the responsibility to the general contractor, Steve Catranel Construction of Wilkins, which is supposed to check workers’ driver's licenses and other documents to verify their identities.
But, Catranel claims that he does not know the identities of the illegal aliens who were detained, and therefore cannot verify whether or not they were working on the Jeannette project.
Catranel did say: “We thought we had addressed the issue so it wouldn't be an issue. I don't know what else we can do. We have names, photos and sign-in sheets."
The contractor continued: “The guys on the job are very good carpenters. They work.”
O.C. Cluss officials have not commented on this matter.
As we have seen so many times, those who hire illegal aliens simply pass the buck of responsibility to everyone, but themselves.
With 1 in 5 Americans out of work, we simply cannot afford to allow one job go to an illegal alien. The issue of illegal immigration is now a fight for the survival of the American family.
As I always say…For every illegal alien with a job, there is an American without one.
Last month, 14 illegal aliens were arrested in Panama City, Florida, all of whom had been working on a federally-funded construction project, where U.S. workers had actually been turned away. Read that story here: http://www.examiner.com/immigration-...rs-turned-away

Nice racket. Use government money to take jobs from legal citizens. Good work if you can find it, and apparently you can. If you're illegal.

Salvadorans and Hondurans. That means they couldn't speak English. Of the "officials" involved, which ones were Spanish speaking and what was their immigration status? This should not stop with busting and throwing out the illegals. It should also investigate any legals or naturalized citizens who were the points of contact for the illegals. They also need to be deported and stripped of their citizenship where they are naturalized.

Languages are learned, skin color is inherited.

There are both deceased now, but I had an uncle who was married to a Guatemalan woman long before it was socially acceptable for a white person to marry a brown person. I believe they were married for over half a century.

Aunt 'Nita spoke English somewhat well. The fact that she learned Spanish as a child in Guatemala had no bearing on her legal status.


On the other hand, why isn't ICE addressing the English speaking Americans who hired illegals, regardless of whatever language spoken by the employer?
