Hundreds lose jobs in ICE raid at Santa Maria business

Hello Hobie

This is shocking. Folks who have worked here decades, raised kids in Santa Maria, suddenly, midweek, lose their jobs. Even the spokesperson from Bonita Packing was shaken. They fired by I.C.E. for false documentation. Not deported.

A false Social Security card has been easy to get for decades here in the valley for a hundred bucks. A standard thing among farm workers.

WHY do something heartless like this to local families who lived in that fuzzy legal area where so many do today? Especially at this time when election fever has gripped the nation?

So, the US southern border is virtually unmanned, anyone crosses freely, as we all turn a blind eye to the elephant that picks our strawberries, lettuce and broccoli . . . . . until one day right before April Fools they pull a 70's style Imigra raid and round up hundreds of illegal workers in a single day. ¡Sin vergüenzas!

Share this with readers if you like.
