While I’m certainly no fan of illegal aliens...these people are treated poorly, bait-and-switched on wage promises, and sometimes even stiffed..routinely. The contractor prefers illegals because he knows they will have little recourse when the foreman says “payroll is gonna be a little short this week”.
I couldn’t agree more. It’s modern day slave labor. Both the contractor and the 3rd party employment agency should be held accountable. If a Plantiff can establish ‘causation’, I would think that RICO rackettering laws would apply.
