Thanks for the info grandillusion. I thought back in the cobwebs I call my mind, that I had heard there were some types of laws already on the books for a lot of the states, but was not sure.

That was an excellent question Y3Y3 so I decided to see if I could find anything.

First, we have a lot of the meat packing companies most of which have already been busted by ICE for illegal hiring at least once. We have the chambers of commerce who are always on the side of the illegals when it comes to protests and lawsuits for "immigrant rights" Then you have the "councils" that represent builders, retail, hotels, manufacturers and agriculture...all major illegal employers.

Here is the list (note the % of contributions going to Virginia politicians)

Associated General Contractors of Virginia (68% of Virginia political contributions to Republicans -- all years)
George's Foods, LLC
Home Builders Association of Virginia (56% of Virginia political contributions to Republicans)
National Federation of Independent Business (88%)
Pilgrim's Pride Corporation
Smithfield Foods, Inc. (76%)
Tyson Foods (100%)
Virginia Agribusiness Council (54%)
Virginia Automatic Merchandising Assn. (52%)
Virginia Chamber of Commerce (70%)
Virginia Farm Bureau (59%)
Virginia Forest Products Association (64%)
Virginia Hispanic Chamber of Commerce
Virginia Hospitality & Travel Association (74%)
Virginia Manufacturers Association (72%)
Virginia Poultry Federation (72%)
Virginia Poultry Growers Cooperative
Virginia Retail Merchants Association (74%)
Virginia Seafood Council (59%)
Virginia Transportation Construction Alliance (68%)
Virginia Wholesalers and Distributors Assn.

This isn't anything new people. Employers are the reason we have the surmountable surge of illegals already. Employers were left to hire illegals for years and nothing was done. Now that we are faced with millions of illegals using up taxpayer money to survive, only now does the governments want to do something. So of course all those that have benefited over the years from their use of illegal labor, will now cry out "its not fair to us." What's not fair? That you are paying pennies for hard labor that you once paid good wages to Americans to work? Or is it unfair that many Americans have lost jobs to illegals because you the employer are a greedy AH who wants to keep every penny he can earned off the backs of hard labor? You're right, it is unfair. Unfair to the Americans that you sold out and the illegals you lie to in order to get them to do your work. I hope all these business owners go out of business. Its time to pay the piper now.

I can guess "fish" this is because there's more than an abundant supply of unskilled labor ...work that's understood by demonstration and relies on nothing but brawn and ability to engage a simple range of repetitiveness ...but ILLEGALS who made their border hopping exercise in earlier years (10-20 years) have been finding opportunity to be brought into building trade skills that used to rely on apprentices / journeymen and offer handsome, prideful wages ...now a stable of lower hourly labor directed / over seen by a certified supervisor has enabled employers to become more competitive yet increase their "net" margin... that's beginning to disappear as the practice has wrenched all it can so it becomes a question now of where ya goin' now Mr. hot a=ss business operator...

...walla enter ingredients - components of foreign origin bringing with it compromised standards and materials and inferior food ingredients and medicines of dubious quality... what a hell of a fix we're in, more so than most want to allow themselves to know about... how far’s the quality of life generations before us built and enjoyed gonna be tolerated to diminish???
