Let's see if we get some plant managers in cuffs.

I very seriously doubt it.

The whole mantra when all this first went down they now said they were bringing the plant to the area it was supposed to bring thousands of local jobs and everyone was excited about that understandably. The only issue is that they imported probably 60% of the workforce from South Korea

When the people who are hiring the illegals are lined up outside with them, then we're on the right track.

There can’t be any illegals there. Illegals are only doing the jobs Americans won’t do. Working in a car plant is a pretty decent job.

I’ve worked for a major supplier of new automotive parts for about two decades. The pay and benefits were top notch at this plant from the early nineties until big Mike’s wife got elected and have deteriorated since. Lot’s of non English speakers working there now. Should I give ICE a call?

It is unacceptable at any time, but especially when we’ve offered these kinds of tax incentives to bring industry here. 100%.

I remember well when every union was against illegal immigrants taking the jobs of US citizens. My how times have changed. There are unions trying to organize fast food workers.

Good. Georgia uses my tax dollars To give huge tax breaks for that plant.

Honestly, I don’t mind because it creates good, high paying jobs. But I need those jobs going to Americans.

You should advocate for and hound your reps, DAs, and such to see to it that every person involved in the hiring process be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law, and that Hyundai pay the steepest financial penalties for its crimes.

In the 1980's the Border Patrol office in Lake Charles got a tip that there were illegals working at the pogy fish meal plant in Cameron. They drove down took one whiff and said, if there are any let them work in that smell.

Hyundai had children working somewhere in Montgomery from what I can remember seeing on the news.

Well, Human Resources ... and Corporate Heads.

Plant Managers do what they're told to do by Home Offices and Human Resources.

Mercedes in Tuscaloosa did this with Germans as well. My mom taught at Tuscaloosa Academy, most students were German kids whose parents worked at Mercedes
