15 immigrants fired after attending rally

DETROIT (AP) — Fifteen immigrant women were fired from their jobs as meat cutters after attending a protest for immigrant rights last month.

So, what was the response of an activist?

The fired workers were natives of Mexico. Many had worked at Wolverine Packing for several years, and some were undocumented immigrants, Herrada said.

They were fired “for standing up for their rights,” she said.

No. If they are illegal aliens, they do not have the same rights as American Citizens. They are law breakers!

    Next time I buy meat, I’ll definitely look for Wolverine products! Kudos to the company!

    Hey Bachbone – kudos to the company for hiring undocumented workers? They only fired them after they appeared on tv. If you think meatpacking companies aren’t fully aware that they’re hiring illegals, then you’ve been eating the mad cow meat already.

  • Toni says:

    Got news for you Vol Abroad. The company actually uses an agency (which employs the illegals) for their workers. And there were others at the meat packing company who requested time off and were given it. All employees were told if they didn’t request in advance time off they would be fired. This 15 didn’t put in an advance request and they got fired. It’s called consequences for your actions, something Democrats have a difficult time understanding.
