Tyson Foods is closing plants in Iowa, Virginia, Arkansas, Indiana, and Missouri

The company says it wants to double its immigrant hires to 84,000 this year

Angry shoppers are boycotting Tyson Foods products as the $53-million meat firm shutters plants in Iowa and elsewhere while hiring thousands of asylum seekers at job fairs in New York.

Campaigners are urging consumers to stop buying Tyson products amid its wave of closures of poultry- and meat-processing plants across Iowa, Virginia, Arkansas, Indiana, and Missouri.

They point to Tyson's efforts to hire thousands of asylum seekers in New York, offering $16.50-an-hour wages and free immigration lawyers, accusing the firm of ditching US-born workers for cheaper migrant labor.

America First Legal, a conservative action group launched by former Trump administration officials, warned Tyson that it could be breaking the law by favoring foreign-born workers over Americans.

'It is ILLEGAL under federal law to discriminate against American citizens based on their citizenship in favor of non-citizens of any kind when it comes to employment,' the legal action group posted online.

Tyson Foods, based in Springdale, Arkansas, which made $52,881 million in sales last year through its Jimmy Dean, Hillshire Farm, Ball Park, Wright, Aidells, and other brands, did not answer DailyMail.com's requests for comment.

So, I take it now ALL Tyson foods are considered unsafe to eat?

Hey, if a whole bunch of illegal aliens/criminal invaders Are processing our meat, I wouldn’t consider it safe. Who knows what kind of stuff they’re putting in it to try to poison us.

“How come I always thought employing illegal immigrants was...illegal!!!”

Any state in the country could solve the illegals problem in five minutes by making it a crime to employee them.

That no one has shows that despite their talk even the reddest states are still run for CEOs not workers.

A fine explanation of the Biden “strategy” for suppressing American wages at the same time as bolstering census data for the Democrat Party — the party of Tyson Foods.

It takes a lot of “migrants” to poison the meat supply with diseases.

$53 billion. And unless you want to go vegetarian avoiding their products is all but impossible.

Been boycotting Tyson since learning they're a primary illegal employer. Did not know they owned Jimmy Dean's. Whelp, there goes my preferred quick breakfasts.

Somehow, someway...I'll survive (LOL). Like Powers Boothe in "Tombstone" said:

The Tysons chicken factory near Richmond closed about two years ago. They had hired hundreds of American convicted felons. A hard job that paid well. The kind of people nobody else wants to hire. That’s who they’re firing to hire people who are not even supposed to be here.

BOYCOTT!

IBM got rid of about 10k and sent all the jobs to India in Dec.
Word has it the few remaining Americans at IBM have been told they work for India now.
The CEO (who is from India) mandated it with threats of instant termination anyone who didn’t follow his orders.

Well, Tyson now sucks.

My BIL on the wife’s side sold chickens to Tyson in years past. Tyson paid pretty good money, and even offered him stock options. They seemed to want quality product, and tried to take care of the better sellers.

But, I’ll talk with my wife, Tyson doesn’t deserve our money.
