Update:New news article from different source

A company, I have been told. ‘That hires illegal aliens’ won the contract to build the fire station in Anderson, SC. This company is paying its workers less than $10 an hour.

Currently there are some people researching the business for a licenses and other require documents. So far the search as turn up nothing, like the company the does not exist.

According to Mr. Denhardt, The Anderson Police department shows up to inform the protesters they can protest without a $25 permit. Chad the owner of Summerall Masonry Inc who started the protest asked the officer to investigate the illegal alien works. The officer responded they cannot investigate because of Profiling.

According to article on the www.independentmail.com, ‘Anderson City Manager John Moore said city police officers are not trained or authorized to enforce federal and state employment laws. The city relies on the contractor to uphold those employment laws.’

My question for the city manager, could the police pulled over the vehicle with no tags full of illegal aliens leaving the job site?

Why did the workers leave the site if they are legal?

Quotes from site:

Eddy Cowins – in the trade for 37 years: People in South Carolina want to work, families are hungry, they can not find work, illegas are taking the jobs.

Badley from Spartanburg, South Carolina, owns Construction Company Vets returning from Iraq can not find work in the construction industry.

I am listening to the Senate on C-Span. The conference committee that redid the “stimulus” bill TOOK OUT the requirement that people taking jobs generated from the stimulus bill needed to be verified through E-Verify to see if they were U.S. Citizens.

Therefore, the “stimulus” bill is a bill designed to employ illegal aliens.

I wish I was kidding, but I am not.

IF, if the project is funded with Public money it should be subject to the Davis-Bacon Act, this requires the employees doing the respective work be paid the PREVAILING WAGE in that area, this is available from the Owner/City, as it was included in the bid documents.

Now comes the fun part, the Contractor MUST submit certified payroll reports for each week of the project.
On this payroll report is the employees name, address, social security number and pay rate (including any benefits). Not submitting them stops the Owner from paying the contractor. Lying on the reports is fraud and the Feds aggressively presue it with heavy fines and jail time.
