Federal Immigration Agents Detained 100
Interesting during opening week of the WalMart movie. Didn't WalMart get in trouble with immigration violations before for it's subcontracted cleaning crews, which they also said then that they had no idea of them. BUSTED!

ALLENTOWN, Pa. - Federal immigration agents detained more than 100 workers at a construction site for a new Wal-Mart distribution center, authorities said.

The workers, who Wal-Mart said were employed by a subcontractor and not by the retailing giant, were detained Thursday on suspected immigration violations

They were being taken to Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention centers for processing, he said.
More than 50 federal immigration agents, joined by the U.S. Labor Department.
I guess the federal government is chasing WalMart now.
