The Democratic Party’s allies in the AFL-CIO’s unions are pressuring unions and companies to protect illegal-alien migrant employees from deportation, effectively converting the pro-worker unions into wage-cutting front-groups for employers. The conversion is described by the New York Daily News, which showed how progressive lawyers train local Teamster union leaders to negotiate workplace contracts which minimize employers’ cooperation with immigration enforcement agencies. The article says:
At a Wednesday class, funded by the Consortium for Worker Education, Mike Spinelli of Local 553 listened carefully as trainer Luba Cortés walked everyone through the difference between an administrative warrant and a judicial one. …
Spinelli paid particular attention because many of his members — immigrants who work at a Long Island dairy farm — were profoundly shaken when federal [immigration enforcement] agents raided nearly 100 7-Eleven stores last month in a search for undocumented workers.
“We deliver all the dairy to all the 7-Eleven stores in the city — you can imagine how scared some of these guys are,” he said. “It’s a scary time in general, and we’re hoping this can help the workers feel prepared and help protect them — and also so employers know they don’t have to just roll over.”
Unions once existed to push up workers’ wages by denying employers the ability to hire other people from outside the picket line.
However, since before 2008, unions have been enrolling illegal migrants who illegally crossed the line between the United States and other countries.

This is the type of crime the RICO Statute was made for.
They need to be charged and imprisoned.
Hide illegals?
That sounds like conspiracy.
Thanks davikkm. The steady downward spiral in support for unions puzzles analysts.
That is of course illegal but that never bothered the unions.
Exactly. Bust’em up, asset seizure and forfeiture. The works.
Can’t they back trace the illegals through SS numbers?
I can’t imagine this is very popular with the rank and file.
Right to Work sounds like a very good solution to this lawbreaking.
We must take down all enemies, we know who they are, What the hell are we waiting for? the fire to go out?
No it wont. I was a member of the Teamsters for awhile and hated every minute of it. They even took their “share” from my paycheck AFTER I quit the company. I called and promised to sue them if they didn’t give back my money. They eventually did.
Look for,... the union label.
Now it's:
We don't need no stinking green card...
Hilarious. The Unions force their members to protect the illegal alien scabs trying to take their jobs.
Modern Unionism is beyond belief. Trumka will end up like Hoffa if this keeps up.
Not if they’re putting through bonus ones just to get them in their systems.
Not while Jeffy is AG
IMHO; AG Sessions is looking the other way on this one as well since it is the mob who do the actual wet works in the US for the Clintons, Obama, FBI, CIA and the NSA. It’s the 6 ways from Sunday fear that haunts Jeff Sessions because he has likely seen it up close.
“AFL-CIO Unions Prod Employers to Hide Illegal Migrants From Enforcement Agencies”
The rank and file union guys aren’t going to accept this BS. They’ll be dropping a dime on every alien invader they find.
Who do they think is taking away their work.
In each and every actual occurrence of ICE being impeded from doing their jobs by any union rep, etc., these mofos should immediately be arrested and sent to jail.
Cesar Chavez is spinning in his grave, he reported illegals to immigration because he hated the competition to his union workers.
