AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka On Immigration Reform
Posted on January 5, 2013 by dsalaborblogmoderator
Richard Trumka does not speak for me and many other union brothers and sisters. I challenge the AFL-CIO to poll ALL members. I honestly believe the vast majority want our current immigration laws enforced along with securing our borders. Illegal aliens are stealing jobs union members used to do along with driving down wages for all Americans. If Trumka and the politicians cared about us they would demand E-Verify be enforced nationwide. At the last IBEW Convention a resolution was passed supporting E-Verify. I would hope other unions would follow. It is our jobsand our country.
