Illegal Aliens File Complaint with N.C. Department of Labor




The entitlement mentality illegal aliens have is astonishing.  However, can anyone blame them when federal and state governments cater to their needs?  They take our jobs and use up valuable resources that should be afforded only to citizens and lawful residents. 

The Observers that infest this state lament the woeful conditions these lawbreakers face in the state of North Carolina.  Sunday’s front page article features the plight of illegal aliens who’ve filed complaints with the N.C. Labor Department for lost wages.  Of course, they don’t mention the plaintiffs’ status until midway through the article:

At first, Zuniga, 40, and Paredes, 39, hoped their boss of more than two decades would settle up on his own. As bills piled up and Christmas approached, they lost hope.
The men, immigrants who came here illegally from Mexico, found a telephone number for the state Department of Labor. Soon, 18 employees for the company had lodged a complaint, the agency said.
Labor investigator Dawn Beasley confirmed 18 laborers for Tri-City Contractors of Raleigh were cheated out of several weeks of wages. But the company owner, Curtis J. Fields, declined to voluntarily pay what he owed, and a lawyer for the company told Beasley that the company was likely going to file for bankruptcy, the agency said.
Fields and two other executives of Tri-City could not be reached for comment. Tri-City appears to not be operating, but one of the other principals opened another concrete company late last year, according to North Carolina Secretary of State records.
In May, Beasley closed the case. She mailed each worker a letter, breaking the news that their boss had not agreed to pay. She had more bad news: The agency wouldn’t go to court on their behalf.

I don’t get the feeling these illegal aliens are living in the shadows. Do you?  They feel quite comfortable filing a complaint with North Carolina’s Labor Department without any sense of reprisal or consequence for breaking our immigration laws.  On top of that, the company they worked for was a federal government contractor.  Isn’t that rich?
