How touching when Americans are out of work in massive numbers.

Illegal aliens need to flee back to their own country.

Dreamers do not like their circumstances in the United States? Then hit the bricks. Greyhound has convenient service to Mexico and points south.

“ Veronica Velasquez’s job as a physical therapist .......

-snip-

“I am treating people suspected of having COVID-19, and all I’m asking is to stay in this country and provide that care,”

Ummmm. Physical Therapists aren’t expected to “treat” infected patients.
But nice try.

What diseases are they spreading? Does “undocumented” include their vaccination records?

“Just doing the work Americans won’t do.”

If that’s the case, then explain why after an ICE raid, citizens show up the next day to apply for the now open jobs?

Nobody asked you to break the law to come here, so why don’t you just skedaddle back where you came from!

What did they expect when they decided to inter the USA illegally, breaking US laws, and becoming criminals?

“Physical Therapists”?

She is an illegal alien and acting as a Physical Therapist?

Aren’t they supposed to be educated and with a degree, trained and certified by the state they are in?

When I was doing PT for my shattered ankle, the hospital had all of their PT therapists degrees on the wall.

How about a doctor that is an illegal alien from some scum-ridden country, say Zaire (Democratic Republic of the Congo). He sets up shop and that’s okay?

Practicing medicine without a license. Illegal, but since she is illegal, she is protected.

Is there any limit on the lunacy out there.

Illegals are not living in the shadows, not even close. They testify in congress, appear on TV yacking shows, do media interviews, participate in the census and in my college classroom, within two weeks of class starting they TELL EVERYONE they are illegals and laugh because they pay in state tuition (if they pay at all).

“ Illegals are not living in the shadows, not even close. ”

I used to live in LA, worked in the garment industry. Illegals have never been ‘living in the shadows’. It’s an amnesty talking point. Beyond many of them being paid under the table, they’re a fairly brazen and pushy bunch.

I have no idea how the licensing part works in CA. I’m in Washington state, safe bet the process is similar. Here PT trainees can work while they’re in school to get their certification.
