On Wednesday, the Tea Party Immigration Coalition (TPIC) announced a boycott of several national restaurant chains which recently came out in support of amnesty for illegal aliens.Last week, executives from more than 100 companies signed onto a letter addressed to Speaker of the House John Boehner and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, urging them to pass so-called 'comprehensive immigration reform' this year, which would not only grant amnesty to millions of illegal aliens, but would also greatly increase the number of legal immigrants admitted annually...a measure which would further displace American workers.
The letter states:
“We, the undersigned chief human resource officers of major corporations doing business in the United States, are writing to urge the House to enact legislation to fix the broken immigration system and work with the Senate to ensure that a bill is signed by the President this year.
also greatly increase the number of legal immigrants admitted annually...a measure which would further displace American workers.

Not surprisingly, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce applauded the letter and quickly issued their own in support of bringing more foreign workers to this country.
During a recent interview, TPIC founder John Stahl stated:
“At a time when the number of working Americans is fewer than it has been in 35 years, and Food Stamp usage has hit an all-time high, it is beyond disgusting that these brands, which Americans have supported for decades are now turning their backs on those same Americans...This cannot be tolerated.
“While most Americans have never heard of some of these companies, and we can understand that it would be difficult for many folks to switch their insurance coverage from Liberty Mutual to another company, it's rather easy to send these chains a message...You simply don't eat in their restaurants, stay in their hotels or drink their soda.
TPIC is sponsoring a boycott of the following businesses and products:
-The Cheesecake Factory -Coca-Cola -CVS Pharmacy -Hallmark Cards -Hilton Hotels -Hyatt Hotels -McDonald's -Longhorn Steakhouse -Olive Garden -Red Lobster -Wendy's
The TPIC is urging all Americans who care about border security as well as the rule of law to stop patronizing the aforementioned businesses, immediately.
The citizens' advocacy group is currently drafting a letter explaining the boycott, which will be sent to all of those who signed the letter urging Congress to pass an amnesty bill.
McDonalds ,has been caught time and time again hiring illegal aliens. So now they want make illegals,legal so they may continue to displace American workers As Sept 15,2013..Years after the Great Recession ended, 46.5 million Americans are still living in poverty, according to a Census Bureau report released Tuesday...http://money.cnn.com/2013/09/17/news/economy/poverty-income/index.html None of this matter to the above corperations
I already boycott them because their products suck.
Not surprized here. Our mikeyD manager was Mexican and he had illegals pimped and went to jail for it. Same illegals bashed while parking my nephews car who was employed there and ran off not paying.

About as unhealthy as you can get. If you don’t believe me go to one and sit there for an hour and look at the size of the “regulars”. White people (with the exception of the young’uns and libbies) stopped eating their long ago for the most part
Why do corporations think it is a good idea to take political stands? Especially stupid political stands?
The left hates you, so lets make conservatives hate you too.
Great idea.
Then they have to boycott the Wall Street Journal too for its support of bringing in cheap workers.
This is unworkable. Boycott Starbucks, boycott mcDonalds. Who’s left not to boycott?
Ever walked in there, it always smells like vomit. Went to Burger King and it smelled like steaks on the grill.
Among the fast foods they are hands down the worst!!!
That can't be said enough!
Don't understand how people can eat their burgers or fries, really bad stuff.
” I already boycott them because their products suck.”
Likewise. Haven’t eaten at a McDonald’s since 1975, and won’t anytime soon.
Bingo!!we have a winner!!!
We could cook at home and sell from home, but with minimum wage denunciations and Obama care, everyone is stuck in the system. Besides the FDA would come around. Yep, they are taking it all.
Chick-fil-a???????
Indeed, if they think the Mexican sueddeten land is not going to come without its marxistnlawyers to extort the business man, I got news for them.
Jimmy johns supports people with firearms. Bunch of hippies working there, tho
I’m all in. I already avoid fast food joints because my Spanish isn’t that good. Lotta Burger’s are the worst about not having English speaking employees.
I live in the land of Chik Fil A ....don’t eat at MacDonald’s
I have stopped a long time ago going to Mc D’s.
