These are exactly the people who should be granted amnesty. But your solution is ICE raids.

These people were here on a work visa that restricted them from working for any other employer.

You see from this that we need immigrants to work jobs Americans feel too good for. So let's give existing workers a path to citizenship and admit more migrants into the country, open & above board. Because we need them.

the bust is part of a shift in priorities by President Biden’s Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. Instead of targeting undocumented workers via raids on workplaces, today, authorities are targeting “exploitative employers” and businesses that violate labor laws.

Who are the defendants? These workers are necessary and should work under humane conditions. Perhaps businesses exploiting them should be held accountable.

Or you could enforce the rules which punish EMPLOYERS who have ALWAYS exploited immigrants.

This was literally only found out because Biden made ICE focus on exploitative employers instead of the immigrants themselves. If it were still Trump, that would've never been found outz
