A Labor Department ad campaign that offers government job assistance to illegal immigrants has shocked GOP lawmakers. Specifically, the assistance is designed to help illegals who believe they’re getting short-changed for their work.
Utah Rep. Jason Chaffetz told Fox News he wants to know why taxpayers are being asked to spend money to ensure that illegals get assistance for fair wages while millions of unemployed Americans struggle to find jobs.
"That's insane," Chaffetz told FoxNews.com on Wednesday. "That's just unbelievable."
But the Labor Department stood by the campaign, saying in a written statement to FoxNews.com that "through Democratic and Republican administrations, the Department of Labor has consistently held that the country's minimum wage and overtime law protects workers regardless of their immigration status."

If they had, I would have said NO!
Let’s play their game and declare an open border with Mexico. Next, send the US Army in to topple the corrupt Mexican Governament and install US puppet regime. After we “stabliize” Mexico, annex the whole thing (including the oil).
Everything you said applies to about every western country. France, England etc.
That's racist! /sarcasm

We need to deport or imprison ALL illegal aliens, including their anchor babies, seal/secure the border and SHOOT anyone who tries to re-enter illegally.

Illegal is not an immigration status. Do the government forms have student, technical worker, "illegal" as status? I don't think so.
Go right ahead.
Illegals have US government and the Mexican government using their power to defend illegals' interests.
So who protects the interests of US taxpaying citizens?
900,000 Americans are LOSING unemployment benes Fri.
Yet the U.S. Gov is running commercials and helping ILLEGALS get more money.
I am now adding The Labor Department to my list of Gov. Departments to get rid of.
Taxpayers are being asked to spend money to ensure that
(small people) (forced)
illegals get assistance for fair wages
(voters),new world order to ensue.
We have truly gone through the looking glass and are living in an alternate nation.
I think I will go bang my head against a wall for a little while.
