I am headed out to the protest site, to see if I can get some photo’s and statements.
Put correct hardware in trunk!!
Just got back with some info and pictures.
A company, I have been told. ‘That hires illegal aliens’ won the contract to build the fire station in Anderson, SC. This company is paying its workers less than $10 an hour.
Currently there are some people researching the business for a licenses and other require documents. So far the search as turn up nothing, like the company the does not exist.
According to Mr. Denhardt, The Anderson Police department shows up to inform the protesters they can protest without a $25 permit. Chad the owner of Summerall Masonry Inc who started the protest asked the officer to investigate the illegal alien works. The officer responded they cannot investigate because of Profiling.
According to article on the www.independentmail.com, ‘Anderson City Manager John Moore said city police officers are not trained or authorized to enforce federal and state employment laws. The city relies on the contractor to uphold those employment laws.’
My question for the city manager, could the police pulled over the vehicle with no tags full of illegal aliens leaving the job site?
Why did the workers leave the site if they are legal?
