Say WA?!?!?

Washington State Labor and Industries
Q. If I am an undocumented worker, will L&I turn me in to the Immigration and Naturalization Services or the local police authority?

A. Labor and Industries is NOT associated with the Immigration and Naturalization Service. We will not report an undocumented worker to the federal government or to a local police authority — it is our intent to ensure employees are provided a safe workplace, appropriate wages, and medical coverage if injured.

Doesn't bother WA L&I if your labor is illegal, just if you are illegaly making at least the minimum wage.

So let me get this right: it is considered more appropriate for owners of pizza stores and 7-11’s to determine if someone is in this country legally than for government agencies or police officers? It is also appropriate to hold the pizza storeowner accountable for an incorrect determination, even though a standardized means of determining residency is not provided nor will any government agency provide him help with the determination? Im just trying to get it straight here.

Hey Roger, you're the one who needs to wake up. It's never been anti-immigrant, it's anti-ILLEGAL-immigrant, and it is a bi-partisan "faction". IMHO, it's pathetic that people such as yourself still don't get it......

Hay Roger you need to go look at the new democrats from this election. Most of them ran to the right of the Republicans that they beat.

and good riddance to the deadwood.

Roger, you're still dodging the issue. Oh well, from your posts I gather you're part of the Anti-American faction of the Democrat Party also known as "Progressives" AKA - Communists, Socialists and other assorted fruits and nuts.

DEMO DUMMIES like Roger NEVER LEARN. Numerous polls show that over half of all Americans consider ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION A MAJOR PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH.

Is that all you have? A bunch of political dogma?

"DEMO DUMMIES like Roger NEVER LEARN. Numerous polls show that over half of all Americans consider ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION A MAJOR PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH."

What polls? Polls taken in Texas? The White House?
