For Immediate Release
AFSCME Pres. Lee Saunders on New Immigration Rules
WASHINGTON
AFSCME Pres. Lee Saunders issued the following statement on the Department of Homeland Securitys new rules on enforcing executive orders on immigration:
The rules announced today for implementing President Trumps executive orders amount to nothing short of mass deportation. Instead of seriously addressing comprehensive immigration reform, this administration is throwing communities into chaos and fear.
America is made stronger by the generations of immigrants who have come here willing to work hard, play by the rules and pay their fair share no matter where they are from. Todays steps threaten and undermine fundamental American values of hard work, family and community.

If the unions were fighting for American workers they would support Trump's enforcement orders. But the communist union leaders don't care about American workers at all. They care about lining their pockets, donating money to corrupt democrats and bringing down capitalism. They are complete scum.

“comprehensive immigration reform”
Those are the words they always use when they want us to shut up and go back to sleep.

In my experience, short lived, with the VA.. lotsa immigrants there. A clever way of not paying employer tax they would have to pay for citizens. Although they were credentialed, there were some barriers to overcome. I had to pay the same amount of money to go to the VA or a private doctor, so I just picked a competent private doctor.

Why would union leaders want uncontrolled illegal immigration?
Counter intuitive = corruption.
