1,200 janitors fired in 'quiet' immigration raid

[ilbegone]

How many of those 1200, fired but not deported, have not moved on to other jobs but have availed themselves of welfare instead?

A few months ago, when my region was entering 13% unemployment, I called my far left, whack job senators and informed them that I knew a lot of people who were out of work and needed a job.

There were noises of sympathy, which quickly abated when I suggested that illegals be taken out of competition for jobs by being deported, then icy silence when I added that E-verify should be used to determine eligibility for any form of public assistance, including food stamps and unemployment compensation.

The Obama administration has shifted away from the dramatic workplace raids that were a hallmark of the Bush administration's enforcement strategy.


I remember some statistics that showed something like four companies being warned or served papers in one year under the Bush administration. I not sure if anything ever came of it.

Here it is;
