I guess we’ll have to wait and see how badly Indiana has shot itself in the foot. I understand the issue of labor trafficking, but people that are knowingly breaking the law now, won’t change their behavior. For the rest, I suspect we will see higher construction prices and longer construction times.
The big unknown for employers is do they risk hiring immigrants that are here legally and are allowed to work, but because of the crazy whims of this administration, may lose protected status. That puts employers in a bad position.
On one hand I see the state wanting to protect jobs…but have you noticed who it is that seemingly works their rear ends off? Is at a job site even on weekends? Yep…it’s often migrant labor. These folks are very good at what they do, show up every day and get the jobs done. Pick another fight. Go after truly “dangerous” immigrants (and US Citizens while you’re at it!)
BTW, The Monroe County Sheriff does seem to have a valid point about that pesky Constitution.
What Tony and Dan seem to have said without saying it….. Who cares if employers exploit illegal workers for lower pay and no benefits as long as my deck can be completed faster for less money.
I agree that migrant workers should receive full pay and benefits for the hard work that they do, Donald. They should also be able to access federal benefits like social security since they pay into them. Happy to be on the same page as you about this.
DonALD F, explain to me how this new law is going to stop any lawbreakers?
DonALD F. Please don’t try to infer anything into my comment. I spoke my peace. These folks work hard. Are employed by area home builders who are the ones that need to held accountable. (BTW, I built my own deck, thank you).
