Union Rep Helps Illegals Escape Federal Detection

-By Warner Todd Huston

A Federal judge has refused to dismiss charges against an Iowa UF&CW union rep who was arrested and accused of helping illegal workers keep from being detected by Federal immigration officials.

The DesMoines Register reports that Braulio Pereyra-Gabino will stand trial for, “advising workers in the United States illegally of how to avoid detection and arrest,” and that “prosecutors say he did so in orientation speeches he gave to new Spanish-speaking employees.”

An immigration agent recorded a version of the speech Aug. 22, 2006, according to court documents.

Pereyra-Gabino is charged with a single count of shielding from detection and attempting to shield from detection undocumented immigrants at the Marshalltown meatpacking plant from June 2003 until he was arrested.

This story goes to show that Unions are not only out to defraud American business, but that they are aiding and abetting illegal immigrants in order to gain more members. And it is not a leap to realize that these additional members will be paying millions to aid the Democrat Party with their dues and that unions are materially supporting the Democrat Party with illicit money stolen from illegal immigrants.

Welcome to the post American world of the left.
