We all know the drill. The standard BS that will come from the plant spokeshole. "We followed the rules and never knowingly hired an illegal alien. All our employees had the correct paperwork...You don't expect us to be document experts, do you?" WEASELS. Lying, deceitful dirtbags.

The article didn't say how many employees the company has, only that 350 got nabbed. Ususally, ICE arrests about 20-30% of the workforce. in the worst cases, it's more like 70%. This company, don't know yet.

Thank you, ICE

Federal immigration agents arrested some 350 suspected undocumented workers in a raid on a Mississippi electrical equipment plant Monday, authorities announced, hours after sealing all entrances amid reports their sweep had idled normal operations.

Barbara Gonzalez, a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokeswoman, confirmed the arrests in the raid that she said targeted Howard Industries Inc. of Laurel. Authorities said more people could be arrested.


Howard Industries was founded in the 1960s. In 2002, state lawmakers approved a $31.5 million, taxpayer-backed incentive plan aimed at helping to expand its operations.
