Your contractor, sadly, won't be in business very long. He will be priced out by the ones that hire illegals. You, on the otherhand, would be called racist by implying you hired only contractors that didn't have Hispanics. Not every Hispanic is illegal. Just what do you think the headlines would have been had Tancredo asked for contractors that didn't have 'Mexican looking' people? When you say 'local' are you implying that no Hispanic people live near you? Where do those that work for the other contractors come from? Or did you mean 'don't look like foreigners'? The race baiters would eat you for lunch!
Do you even read what I repy? I said I asked contractors to COMPLY WITH EMPLOYMENT LAW! I didn't say "no Hispanics" (which in fact the landscapers were...with green cards) nor did I say "no illegals." I simply asked them to guarantee they complied with state and federal labor laws. This means minimum wage, safety, child labor avoided, etc. It also includes no illegal immigrant hiring.
Can you not understand this? I have explained it twice now.
Tancredo is not LEGALLY responsible, but he made a stupid political mistake by not being more cautious.
If I were trying to get make-up prohibited because I thought it was a health hazard and I had made that a part of my campaign, I wouldn't let myself be caught in a beauty salon, even if all I was doing was getting a hair-cut.
