The SEIU's Continued Campaign to End All Immigration Enforcement In These Times covers the continued efforts of the SEIU to end all immigration enforcement. That is not how the SEIU views it, of course. "'SEIU is not saying, 'Don't enforce the law,' [Executive Vice-President Eliseo Medina] says. 'We're saying, 'Enforce the law in a way that can work.' He proposes that DHS should work with the Labor Department to target employers who violate wage and hour laws as well as immigration laws." In reality, the whole focus of the SEIU has been in expanding its membership, legal or not. The SEIU has been against worksite raids, and now has come out against workplace audits. There is no concrete enforcement mechanism that the SEIU will commit to supporting. If the SEIU were serious about saying that ICE should focus on "wage and hour" violations they would have supported the Postville raid, which uncovered tens of thousands of child labor and other violations. |
