New York City shelters are overwhelmed with migrants...
But for companies like Tyson Foods Inc., struggling to fill unpopular jobs with a U.S. unemployment rate of 3.9%, this new population presents an alluring opportunity.
The food processing company wants to hire 52,000 asylum seekers for factory jobs, offering a starting wage of $16.50 per hour along with benefits. The company understands and is aware that these are jobs that many find unpleasant, such as washing meat, placing the cuts into trays, final inspections for bones and packing meat, but believe this will help the refugees to start a life in America.
For example, the company says that it has allocated $1.5 million a year for legal aid services and will be providing its new employees with temporary housing, on-site child care, transportation, a relocation stipend, and paid time off to attend court hearings and to adjust to their new homes.
The company joined forces with the nonprofit Tent Partnership for Refugees, a network of over 400 major companies committed to helping refugees find jobs, with the plan to hire as many people as possible from the more than 180,000 asylum seekers that have come through New York City’s shelter system. Tyson, for example, already employs about 42,000 immigrants.
According to an Economic Policy Institute analysis of federal data, about 50% of the labor market’s recent growth came from foreign-born workers between January 2023 and January 2024.
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said last week that immigration and labor participation contributed to economic strength.
"The immigration that we saw was a notable factor of 2023 and 2024 economic outcomes, and of course we're aware of that, and it plays a role in our way of thinking about economic policy and in the path of the economy," Powell said.

Tyson Foods is never going to get my money... I’m going to email them...Hillshire and Jimmy Dean are good but America needs to kick those ASSHOLES in the balls...
There’s a new Perdue Chicken ad claiming their biggest competitor has re-introduced antibiotics to otherwise healthy chickens. I can only assume Tyson is Perdue’s biggest competitor.
Any possible link between dosing their inventory with antibiotics and hiring 52,000 3rd world workers?
Do YOU want YOUR family eating food handled by 52,000 illiterate, ignorant, illegal immigrants?
Or any other company who hires asylum seekers.
Biden’s people said they needed illegals to work the farms yet fruit and vegetables prices have went up 18 to 35%.
A lot of manure being spread around by that lot.
This is good! Moving these illegal alien parasites out to rural chicken factories, Where they can do that work and make an honest wage/ And pay taxes.
GOOD! Just stay away from the white girls and women.
You have never tried or eaten delicious bugs. In a peanut butter jelly sandwich

The town of Perry is under 8,000 persons-—A major blow to the town-—followed by Tyson actively giving jobs to INVADERS.
Betcha Trump gets lots of votes in Perry.
I quit buying Tyson products when they were a MAJOR supporter to GOV Bill Clinton.
I live in Arkansas and regardless of Political Affiliation most business leaders here supported Clinton and thought he was going to steer all kinds of business to Arkansas, sad truth he turned his back on the state and did nothing.
At least Lyndon Johnson made sure Texas got all he give them. When Lyndon was bought he stayed bought!
THEY just DO NOT DO I-9.
NO ONE from the Feds is inspecting payroll data.
ONLY cross-check is when your annual report on income to IRS sends you notices of “NON-MATCH of NAME & SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER”.
That can take as long as 18 MONTHS AFTER the ANNUAL YEAR END FILING-—BY that time-—employee is working elsewhere.
THEY ARE COACHED ON ALL OF THIS-—and have been for years.
I did payroll for egg ranches in 1977 or so & had constant problems with ‘NON-MATCHES’.
employees long gone or now working under another name/number.
HELL NO
Saw that. Tyson has been run by scumbags for years.

I’m definitely boycotting Tyson. I’m checking my usual grocery purchases against their products and making sure I purchase nothing made by the company.
This needs to be an all out effort. Their stock [TSN] is at 55.84 (down -21) at the moment. It needs to be half that within 60 days.
Those asylum seekers are full of lice, which can be harvested.
Open borders meets a generation of snowflakes.
What could go wrong?
