Tyson Foods Fires Hard-Working American Employees and Instead Hires Illegal Immigrants

Welcome to 2024, where it is more beneficial to be an illegal immigrant in the United States than a U.S.-born, hard-working, law-abiding citizen.

Tyson Foods is facing criticism and calls to be boycotted over the company reportedly firing its employees and hiring illegal immigrants in their place.

According to Bloomberg, just days after Tyson Foods’s Perry, Iowa location fired more than 1,200 American workers, the company announced that it has partnered with a non-profit refugee group, Tent Partnership for Refugees, hiring thousands of asylum seekers instead. 

The food company reportedly recently had a job fair in Iowa for immigrants to attend as American workers remain without paychecks. Tyson Foods also created a database of tens of thousands of illegal alien workers that they plan to replace American workers with, offering $16.50-an-hour wages and free immigration lawyers. 

Tyson recently hired tens of dozens of illegal immigrants from Venezuela, Mexico, and Colombia during a job fair in New York City. 

The Great Replacement in action.

Tyson Foods is firing American workers and replacing them with illegals.

Adding insult to injury, Tyson Foods will also provide lawyers to help with "immigration" hearings.

“It is ILLEGAL under federal law to discriminate against American citizens based on their citizenship in favor of non-citizens of any kind when it comes to employment,” America First Legal said, adding that Tyson is breaking the law by favoring illegal immigrant workers over Americans.

The outlet also noted that the company has not only set millions of dollars aside for the immigrant’s legal fees, but will also provide housing, on-site child care, transportation, and paid time off to attend court hearings. 

Tyson’s CEO Donnie King, who makes up to $13 million a year, has funded the campaigns of President Joe Biden, Nikki Haley, and others, according to Open Secrets. 

The company already has about 42,000 immigrants working for them among its 120,000 U.S. workforce. 

“We would like to employ another 42,000 if we could find them,” Tyson employee Garrett Dolan, told the outlet. The majority of new hires “Are going to come from refugees and immigrants, so we're now in the business of strategically thinking that through.” 

In 2022, the company hired 2,500 refugees under the Tent program.

Tyson is closing its facility in Perry, Iowa and laying off its 1,200 workers.

Instead, they plan to hire thousands of new illegals in states like New York.#BoycottTyson. Pass it on.

Told the wife today I don’t want to see another tyson product in the house. There are others. Got no use for tyson. None at all. Never did but this takes the cake.

[Lockbar]

Its all about the 10% for China Joe.

[jonrick46]

This is all for Tyson’s stock holders. I am only guessing, but this likely falls into RICO activity for which they will pay dearly.

[PrairieLady2]

Yep, thanks! I too will avoid their products even though I don’t use many of them. I don’t use them because I don’t care for them.

[central_va]

Free helicopter rides.

[P.O.E.]

It would be a real shame if such products were left in shopping carts in the aisles. Maybe topped off with some Ben & Jerry’s

[ronnie raygun]

I am happy to say I dont use any pf them

My cousins son worked for Tyson in Oklahoma. He inseminated chickens? At least that’s what I understood when he told me about his job. Anyway, he finally quit because the immigrants working with him treated him so badly. He complained to management and they never did anything. He said it just got worse and worse. I talked to him and mentally he was a wreck.

Die, corporate scum.

On an NYS related note...

Nonresident job seekers protected by New York State discrimination laws, judge rules

Meanwhile, NYS layoffs keep piling up. Cases in point...

If another company chooses American workers and pays them American wages, would all of you be willing to pay more for it.

That's a loaded question. We had that choice in the early to mid 2000s, and for the most part we chose the cheaper prices. That's why everything is made in China and companies are replacing Americans of all races with cheap foreign labor.

[butlerweave]

I don’t buy those brands away

[Wuli]

Boycott Tyson.

[TwelveOfTwenty]

Boycott Tyson.

The fact that they stayed with American labor for as long as they did doesn't show their true colors, but ours. If we as consumers had stood on principle instead of choosing to save a few pennies at the expense of American workers, this might not be happening.

I shouldn't have to keep saying this. Not all of you, but you know who you are.

So what are we going to boycott them for? Giving us what we want?

[Tommy Revolts]

Why would anyone buy products from a company such as this?

.....No meat until Pascha on May 5...and then spit roasted lamb is the only true delicacy!....

Spit roasted lamb AND spit roasted pork for Serbs (native and honorary) on Pascha!

[ridesthemiles]

Town of Perry has less than 8,000 population.

[ridesthemiles]

YES-—Because of that, I stopped using their products in the 90’s.

However— I did not know they owned Hillshire.

Another item to stop using.

[ridesthemiles]

Never heard that “MINIMUM “ wages didn’t count when using illegals.

[Mark17]

YES-—Because of that, I stopped using their products in the 90’s.

Same here.
