Tyson Foods laying off Americans with plans to hire tens of thousands of illegals

Corporate outsourcing used to mean sending American jobs overseas; now, in a weird and ironic turn of events, it’s become a domestic plague too.

And Tyson Foods is leading the way in American workers displacement; here’s the story, from Fox News yesterday:

As Tyson Foods announced it is shuttering an Iowa pork factory that will lead to more than 1,000 lost jobs, the company reportedly met with and hired migrants in Manhattan for positions at a Tennessee plant.

At least 87 migrants from Central and South America were hired in two separate groups, according to Tribune News Service. The same report said Tyson employs about 42,000 immigrants and that the company’s corporate social responsibility executive said, ‘We would like to employ another 42,000 if we could find them.’

Now another report, shared via Yahoo, said this:

Tyson currently employs over 40,000 immigrants in its 120,000-plus-strong workforce in its US businesses. They’re boosting this number significantly by collaborating with the Tent Partnership for Refugees, which is a non-profit focused on helping immigrants in the US.

(More than one-third of Tyson’s employees are “immigrants” and I have little confidence that even a majority of them are legal.)

Instead of American companies hiring third-world foreigners outside of the U.S., our politicians simply import those people here to take our jobs—before providing “free” room and board, “free” food, “free” health insurance, prepaid debit cards loaded with thousands of dollars, “free” public education, “free” college tuition, and many other “free” amenities. (It goes without saying, we are the ones paying for all of this.)

As Ohio’s J.D. Vance said:

‘All we know is that they are firing American workers and hiring illegal aliens to replace them. This is the entire point of illegal immigration — and Republicans, we’ve got to hammer this point home.’........................
