A “company that cares”, how? By discriminating against international workers? By illegally demanding greater proof from new employees?
What’s he going to do, call up all the landscapers he can find and ask if they hire illegals?
Now, I think Romney is thoroughly inadequate re: illegal immigration, and only marginally better than Perry on the issue. I’d rather have Cain, Santorum, Gingrich or Bachmann be my nominee, but there’s no way to hang him on this particular angle.
Right off the bat I told them two things ~ (1) If they brought illegals onto our property I'd sue, and (2) If they couldn't guarantee "no illegals" don't bother bidding.
In the end we found a local fellow. I helped him set up his company and write his bid. He's been great. He was born on one of those little Vietnamese boats overcrowded with hundreds of people just as it started sinking ~ I remember praying for the safety of those people and writing numerous letters to my Congressman and Senators about what to do.
He's legal and he didn't just step over a line in the sand.
Oh, and right after solving that problem I went blind for several months.
