U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has begun to check the status of people who work at critical infrastructure worksites, to prevent terrorist attacks. In May, ICE agents arrested eight Los Angeles Department of Water and Power workers because they were illegal. Their jobs ranged from blue collar to management. One arrested worker made more than $100,000 a year, according to the Associated Press.Could we make this up? It appears again,that many government agencies don't want to follow the law.Those 100k a year jobs would be nice to have too bad you aren't the skin color to get them.
The eight workers were from Ethiopia, Nigeria, El Salvador, Mexico and the Philippines. All but one had entered the United States legally, but overstayed their visas or did not have green cards. Three workers had green cards or were legal residents, ICE explained in a press release, but they had "criminal convictions that render them deportable."
