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.”

Here we are not so cruel as to make migrants live in older homes...we build them brand new homes!

Maine Builds New Rent-Free Apartments for Migrants Paid by State’s Taxpayers

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/maine-builds-new-rent-free-apartments-for-migrants-paid-by-state-s-taxpayers/ar-AA1mVKQS

We wouldn’t want migrants having to stay in some musty, half-century old apartment building, now would we?

Isn’t Musk being sued by DOJ for preferring to hire American citizens?

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

America's October 7 is being staged right now.

Re: "Next up - people in subsidized housing told to give up homes for 'migrants' - Already happening in U.K."

Already happening in the USA, too.

The federal Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, which is administered by state governments, is the largest rent subsidy program in the USA.

LIHTC requires ZERO verification that tenants are citizens or Green Card holders.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Never, in all my days of doing this ping list, would I have ever thoughts of the reasons to homeschool that are presenting themselves to us on an almost daily basis.

The government knows best, next they’ll outlaw unions and voting to consolidate their power. People will complain so expect free birth control, abortions and streaming services and some legalization of drugs.
Who will fight back?
Not many will complain, and the boomers will soon be dead along with history.

this country is being staged for a bloody civil tribal dumpsterfire of strife, violence and mayhem.

Absolutely.

And the brain dead among us will STILL vote democrat.

The rest of us are busy getting ready for what is clearly looming on the horizon.

The Colorado governor is a poofter who views his sexual preference as the most important thing in his life. What else would people expect?

Denver voted for this. The city workers voted for this (through their unions). They get what they voted for.

There have to be at least a dozen hiring & labor laws being mashed to do this.

AT the very MINIMUM-—NONE of these persons can successfully fill out a form I-9. PERIOD

They think that workers will just sit back and take it or just move on to another job. I think what will happen is that it will spur violence against the illegals who took their jobs.

They are already not really wanted. This will just exacerbate that dislike even farther.
