Denver to Furlough Workers to Hire Illegals
Hot Air ^ | February 28, 2024 | DAVID STROM

No, it's not a joke.

The City of Denver has informed workers that it may be furloughing them--technically still employing them at 0 hours of work--to illegally hire illegal aliens without work permits...

As Denver faces a budget crisis due to 40,000 illegal immigrants arriving in the last year, the city is using its resources to get the migrant population employed, warning hourly workers that they may lose hours to illegal immigrants and using the public school system to help the illegals get work permits, according to emails obtained by The Daily Wire.

Denver’s 9 News reported on Monday that the City of Denver warned its workforce of job cuts, reporting that while the city “says it is NOT laying off employees to pay for the migrant crisis,” it “IS telling hourly employees they may have their hours reduced to zero.” Sen. John Hickenlooper (D-CO) told the outlet that because companies are generally barred from hiring illegal immigrants, the city may simply start hiring illegal immigrants itself — even though that is also illegal.

“If the federal government wants to come down and throw the book at us, we’ll deal with the legal costs,” Hickenlooper said.

Emails obtained under public records laws show that the city is also using its schools in the effort to get illegals employed. Denver Public Schools (DPS) worked with the city to help illegal immigrants get work permits, giving visas to foreigners to work for the school system so that schools have “adults who are reflective of our students.”

"giving visas to foreigners to work for the school system"

Hey! We have a great idea! Let's hire a bunch of people who may very well be exiled prisoners from some far-off land.

What will we hire them to do?

Here's another great plan! Let's have them work with the kids in our schools!

Are we smart or what?!

Colorado is taking Austin place as being the weirdest place with the most lunatics on the planet.

Not worry. That is only Phase One.

Phase Two will be the boot of government coming down on the necks of all us — and the final extermination of our rights.

No doubt. City employees have got to be mostly rats.

Dems will probably let them build a little cabin and have a vegetable garden while they work for free. Just like 1860!

The liberal invasion of Colorado by the folks from Commiefornia worked just as they planned.

Thanks for posting. I think this is mainly a BS story. Government civil servant unions have a great deal of power. They aren’t going to cave on budget requests to accommodate illegal aliens.

Colorado getting the government they voted for and deserve.

Looks like “The Great Replacement “ conspiracy theory might be both a lot more conspiracy than theory and a lot more literal replacement than originally considered.

Love that plan of putting illiterate, uneducated , unskilled illegal aliens with no verifiable background in our schools teaching and caring for our kids.

What could go wrong with that

I am guessing the positions they are eliminating are NOT Union..

So, would they be booting rmv staff?
And replacing them with illegals, who are then now in charge of providing secure gov identifications?

Employing these people means we will NEVER be able to deport them after their asylum claims are rejected.

I can already hear the RINO business lobby shrieking in disbelief that Conservatives want to send all the illegals right back where they came from.

When this 10 million neo-Marxist mob starts voting, the game is PERMANENTLY over for Conservatives and Constitutional government.

Un-friggin-believable

Firing Americans to replace them in GOVERNMENT jobs

And Hickenlooper thinks his “base” will just stand by and go along with it?

Even they aren’t that insane

But of course we all know he’ll just have Jena Griswold whip up some ballots for him and No Problem! He stays “elected”

Although at first this seems like a bad idea in some cases it may be an upgrade.
