The City of Saraland combats illegal workers

Saraland, Alabama - The Saraland City Council has passed a policy that would penalize companies that hire illegal workers for city projects. The policy mirrors a recent regulation OKd by the Mobile County Commission, which came in response to concerns from local labor groups.

"We do see this as a significant issue in our community," said Council President Howard Rubenstein. "We don't believe right now there are any violations going on."

The Saraland policy applies to companies that provide $50,000 or more in labor, materials or supplies and hire three or more illegal workers.
These illegal immigrants are going to continue to work in this country as long as they are here. Employers love them, they work hard, they don't mind work for the lowest pay. Employers going to do what ever they can to keep them on the jobs stronger laws need to implemented.
