(AXcess News) New York - Federal agents arrested three Guatemalan nationals and one Colombian national who were all working illegally for AID Maintenance, a Rhode Island-based company that provides contract cleaning services to both the the Naval Undersea Warfare Center and the Naval Station in Newport RI. In Monday's operation, Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents apprehended the individuals as they reported for work at the base. The workers, who had access badges authorizing them to enter the Naval Station, were identified after agents audited the hiring records of more than 250 AID Maintenance workers. The audit found deficiencies in more than 50% of the records of the employees on the company's payroll.

Wonderful. I sure as hell hoped everyone kept their classified materials properly secured each night. And I don't mean in the top desk drawer either.

We could cut our federal budget down to a fraction of what it is if we paid for what we got in return. Instead we get a 9 trillion dollar debt ceiling and they still can't get it right. LOL

..this would be material for a sitcom if it weren't so serious...

I guess the I-9 thing didn't work out so well.

Doing jobs that Americans won't. The Contractor should be arrested for using illegals in restricted installations. And believe me the contractor knew they were illegal.

Well why not? We've already had loads of Chinese spies working at our main nuclear weapons labs stealing our blueprints and secrets thanks to Bubba.

[Marine Inspector]

And believe me the contractor knew they were illegal.

I'll bet you can't prove it in court!

[FreeAtlanta]

Jobs Americans won't do.

It's time to hit these companies with RICO charges. Think "W" would set still for such an approach? Let me answer that question for you. Hell no! He has no guts on the issue of illegal immigrants.

[SteveMcKing]

If any state ever deserved the wrath of federalism, it's the crooked little state of Rhode Island. Southern state shine in comparison, at least going back to the 1970s anyhow.

We need the social security system to be set up so that an employer submits a number and instantly the prospective employee gets a secret red flag if the number is a dublicate or fake. Then local police are sent to investigate. If the prospective employee turns out to be illegal, they are arrested and an INS paddy wagon comes sweeps the jails daily to pick up the illegals. They get held then shipped back across the border in one of these;

[Marine Inspector]

Agreed.

[RouxStir]

I'm surprised they didn't give the job of security director of the Undersea Warfare Center to an illegal from Sausi Arabia who had "Death to America" tattooed on his forehead.

JAIL TIME, BIG TIME.

Ten years in a federal pen for the executives of the contracting company, if guilty of negligence, plus lifetime disbarment for the company, and any of its divisions.

Let the feds show that they mean business.

[Marine Inspector]

There will be no arrests, let alone any convictions.

[Mike Darancette]

I'll bet you can't prove it in court!

Just call them to testify, the audit said that the contractor did not follow the rules and the law does not require that the contractor know only that he did not correctly attempt to find out.

[Dat Mon]

I agree.

Left out SHOULD BE.....

[Mike Darancette]

Hell no!

Gee, and only today he called for legal compliance by employers.
