But -- but -- but I thought these were the jobs that Americans won't do. 😏

People who could use the jobs and, by rights, ought to have them over those who are here illegally.

Koch should be in prison. They advocate open borders and violate our laws. Close their business as criminal enterprises and sell off their assets. Let their investors and bank do without.

The 25-year-old [Eddie Nicholson] has worked in chicken plants before and was considering a return, but wanted to see if wages had gone up. Plants in recent years have typically paid $11 to $12 an hour, according to labor statistics, but Nicholson said he wants $15 an hour.

They pay so low because the illegals are willing to work cheap. They don't do the jobs Americans won't, they just undercut our wages. Democrats claim they want a living wage, then they force us to accept immigrants that drive that wage down and displace American workers.

Exactly so.

I bet the illegals were working ‘under the table’ for far less that what these people will get.................

“Most were black and spoke with accents from the American South.”

That’s racist.

“Americans Apply for Jobs at Koch Foods After ICE Raid”

I hope they make sure THIS TIME.

And I hope they all get signing bonuses and generous benefits as an “please for give us” gesture.

Exactly. Employers hire illegals because they will work for less than citizens. If they can’t attract workers at $12/hr, they will simply have to raise the wages.

Koch Foods is not owned by the Koch brothers. It is owned by Joseph Grendys. Not that Grendys appears to be any better than the Koch brothers.

They probably weren’t even paid by the hour and didn’t get overtime.
