CHANGING THE IMMIGRATION APPROACH

With the Obama administration in place, new strategies have begun to set-in when dealing with immigration. Instead of dealing with employee deportations, they are going after employers.

The first case to take place, due to this new approach will take place in Minnesota.

Last month, after immigration officials performed a review of the company, American Building Maintenance CO., about 1,200 employees abandoned their jobs. The employees were not held by law and instead, were allowed to go home.

This Minnesota company is under continuous supervision.

As a result of the actions by federal officials, immigrant workers are left with economic struggles. According to employees and company personnel, many of the unemployed workers are selling their cars and home, living off saving and/or asking for loans from friends and other family members.

Many of these immigration workers, who have families to take care, must not go unnoticed. It is important to see their struggles and the government needs to reflect on that.
