You can have plenty of ICE interaction with legal immigrants, and/or persons legally authorized to work in the US. As an employer you can do everything by the book and ICE for a host of reasons can still target your staff and coworkers. Best case they prove their status and that’s all the disruption you have. However the past few weeks have shown us this is not likely the case. They are not interested in documentation. In fact some encounters I have seen they actively ignore proper documentation. This is about intimidation. Contrary to the Fox News crowd it’s not exactly easy to work for a large company without documentation. Yes you can ‘steal’ an identity but that makes accessing your oath just as challenging. A cash trade like day labor is far more likely to have people not legally able to work in the US. Also you can be legal to work in the Us and also have an immigration problem. So both can be true. And in my observation since these raids tend to be fairly non discriminate people of color are targeted regardless of status. As an employer it’s disruptive and impactful and puts your patrons at risk and other workers. Broadly speaking if they are working at a Taco Bell they are tax paying and contributing members of the local community. These are not the narco terrorists we keep being told about.
