The vast majority of legal Hispanic immigrants can effectively communicate in English.

It's within the illegal Hispanic community where the real language issues are a problem forcing government agencies to require dual language staff.

Comical.
It doesn't matter what I did or did not answer. Don't you get it? If illegal aliens weren't present in the US to begin with, employers couldn't hire them.

The fault is squarely on illegal aliens. Deport them ALL. The sooner, the better!


Guess what happens when there are no illegal aliens in the country? Yep: No illegal aliens for employers to hire.

Squarely, huh? Didn't know they were holding employers hostage and forcing them to hire them.

And I can't wait to hear the excuses and deflection when they, the employer, circumvent the system...again.

Yep. Look at the law violation that preceded everything else: illegal presence in the country.

If the illegal aliens aren't here, and they SHOULDN'T be, employers can't hire them.

Deport ALL illegal aliens. The sooner, the better!

Employers know damned well that if someone is accepting half or less of the minimum wage, that's not a legal resident.

Anyways, this is all because of the employer, illegals happen to be reaping the benefits.

So you have no personal knowledge of illegals taking construction, landscaping, restaurant, hotel work, etc. jobs? Really?


Unskilled Workers Lose Out to Immigrants - NYTimes.com


Illegal Aliens Taking U.S. Jobs


Are There Really Jobs Americans Won


If illegal aliens didn't come to our country illegally the employers would have no access to them. At any rate, they are both equally guilty as they are both breaking the law. No one has a right to reap benefits from law breaking.

I started a thread in December discussing a lawsuit filed by African American men in Chicago who have been passed over numerous times by a staffing agency, as they watched Mexicans getting the jobs. The article I referenced is here:

Perhaps blacks aren't doing the jobs because they cannot GET the jobs??

" Black trump supporter blasts sanctuary cities: “all the jobs are going to illegals!”-Your Finally Figuring It Out "

Illegals hurt everybody. The bulk of my property taxes go to a county hospital and school system that supports illegals. I which much rather it go to our black, white and brown Citizens, been saying that for a long time.

So are these employers unaware that the Hispanics they employ are illegal?
