Labor Department Agreements Protect Illegal Workers By Shannon Bream August 31, 2011
Labor Secretary Hilda Solis has overseen a number of signed agreements between U.S. agencies and foreign officials pledging to give migrant workers the full protections of U.S. workplace laws -- regardless of their legal status -- and she says her department will uphold them.

The commie slugs in the Obama regime stick it to the American worker AGAIN!
Evil bastards.
Why cannot Congress STOP this madness? Ozippy and his merry band of czars, departments totally act like the regime Rush talks about.
*Why isn’t there a way to tie this up in court?
*Why is Congress allowing the EPA to end run congress?
*How can Zippy just increase EPA funding by billions without Congress?
*Why can’t Congress demand our borders to be protected?
*Why can he ignore the constitution and congress say nothing?
Every day it’s something worse than yesterday. Wear us down is just what they want. Come at us from all angles. Keep up the fight, never give in.
She is making treaties? Are they reciprocal?
Perverse.
We’re in a Marxist Oligarchy.
I think people and their families have been threatened. Don’t cross the line or else...
Were those countries required to treat their illegals the same way and receive the same benefits and attorneys to protect them........or just us?????

Just us, I’d bet.
Simple. Republicans don’t know how to fight. How else can we explain this end madness?
Why? Here’s a dated, pre-BO rant that is loaded with reasons. Content was upgraded in 2008 so you’ll notice some particulars of the story have been adjusted since.
It’s getting more difficult to deny the tinfoil wrapper is coming undone and a Brave New World awaits it’s scheduled emergence, thanks to the congressional pawns, the judicial sharks and the executive branch mafias we, for however good our reasons, coexisted with.

Meanwhile, in Congress....
Don’t miss this. It’s called The Real Face of the European Union. It’s all about the nation once known as Great.
Some of it should sound eerily familiar.
