Oh my gosh. They might actually have to employ AMERICANS?
Have we checked with W, Jeb, Mitch, Ryan and any other GOP Establishment Cheap Labor Express whore to see if that’s O.K.?
How about Madam Felon Hillary, Bernie Turncoat (lol) Sanders or Lieawatha?

So there could be up to 11 arrests. Let’s get crackin’ ICE.

The housing shortage caused by the hurricane can be partially offset by emptying out places illegals currently live. See how neatly that works out.
To: Daddaroo
For the gazillionth time...nobody had a problem with legal immigration or legal guest workers.I don`t know why this is so hard for the left to comprehend.No kidding! Fill out the papers, do your homework, No problemo.
Those who have already done these things must be really ticked off at those who cut in the front of the line.

If this country declared a “War On Illegals” modeled after the War On Drugs, and confiscated cars, houses, bank accounts etc. from illegals like it does from drug dealers, A. the illegal problem would reduce in size, B. local governments could fund all of their SWAT toys and PD overtime with the seized wealth. Pick one.

Let's re-write that headline:
How Trump's immigration crackdown could slow provide well-paid, full-time employment for many jobless Americans in during flood-hit Houston's efforts to rebuild.

Exactly right.
Trump should quickly reactivate the Bracero Program to legally bring in guest workers for the repairs. That would silence the critics, get the rebuilding done, and show how to do it legally.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
So let's bring in unskilled illegals, pay them under the table, and let them rebuild Houston!</sarc>

:: De Leon and most of his workers live in the United States illegally ::
Let us keep in mind that Senor DeLeon could be lying to the Reuters reporter simply to get his business recognized (all publicity is good publicity). Conversely, the Reuters reporter may be “stretching the truth, also.
If ICE shows up, they might ALL be able to verify their residency/citizenship.
