Here is the circumstance. here are the people with the jobs. Most do not speak English. Most were brought. many of them undocumented. Last Thursday or Friday. following the hearing that I held. there was a raid at this military installation by 51. Pt. 17 23503 what is normally called the INS. It is now I guess the ICE. as it has been subsumed into this behemoth organization called Homeland Security. At any rate. the immigration folks raided. and we are told by people on the ground that they found somewhere around 150 undocumented workers. The immigration folks now say they found 10 that they know of. but they play a little game with us because the more questions we ask. the less information we get from them. It is pretty clear to me. based on eyewitness accounts on the ground. that they went in after the hearing we did and found undocumented workers on that military installation who had taken the jobs. we believe. from the folks in Louisiana who had been victimized by these hurricanes. the jobs they were working at. Here is the Washington Post. This was last week after the hearing: Among the electricians who lost their jobs was Sam Smith. whose house in the Ninth Ward was destroyed after Katrina slammed into the Louisiana coast.
