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.

Already didn’t buy Tyson.
Sorry to learn that they also/ own Hilldale. DONE with that brand, also.
I can’t get to DM because of an ad blocker, but I know that Tyson loses money at many individual plants, and that way over half of their workforce is already foreign born. I don’t think they are laying off citizens to be replaced with illegals. They are closing plants and those workers are being laid off, either way.
What is an EAD
The first of many. These big companies have paid lobbyist millions to bring these illegals into the USA. They finally got what they wanted and now you’ll see American middle class getting laid off in droves to be replaced by slave labor.
At the same time, Democrats will juice the census and add reps in the House and then illegals will vote and within a few years there wont be any Republicans in office.
If we were smart, we’d start to infiltrate the dem party like they’ve done.
IBP set this precedent in the early 70’s....All the other packing companies had to follow suit to compete.
Sara Lee is one of their brands,
Cannot find a listing of all their brands
More like $20 bil. worth
Work permit.
nobody stands up for we citizens....nobody.....yet we pay all these taxes....our whole lives....
Work permit. After they claim asylum, they can apply for the permit and SSN.
Employment Authorization Document.
I buy this brand (if you can find it). Very good meat.
The pancake houses in Gatlinburg use them. Tasty!
It was Somalis then. Who knows what and from where now.
From 2016:
Tyson paid for the first study that determined red meat was BAD for you. Just a coincidence they were exclusively chicken and pork in producer
And with SSN one is on the path for Medicaid.
Americans are suckers.
I hope Tyson doesn’t own Boar’s Head. Those are some premium deli meats right there!

Because I use a VPN and every other computer condom possible. I give them credit for being wary on their part, so will take your word for it and seek out their products here in Murfreesboro. Thank you for the suggestion.
IBP is now Tyson owned.
