Document Summary
Undocumented immigrants should not have any expectations that labor rights will be applied to them. Countered by the fact that the point of the law was that the workers should not be harmed, regardless of their status. Should the injured employees receive back pay, and how much. Controversy of whether the workers should be fully protected or deported. Should law protect a person that is in the us illegally. In calfigorina by 1983 over 75% of agriculutrual workers were foreign born and an unknown fraction were out of status. Open violations of federal minimum wage rules, health and safety rules, and other protections. When they got hurt they were just dismiseed. Tried to apply for compensation, but not granted in courts because of immigration status. Ronald reagan was in office and he passed. The u. s. will not deport undocumented ppl and will grant status to undocumented ppl that came before 1982.
