Letter to the Editor: Our Tax Dollars Fund Illegals

Letter to the Editor: Our Tax Dollars Fund Illegals

Editor, Central City News:

A month or so back, I was driving through Zachary and noticed a crew of workers working on what I believe was the sewer system.  The entire construction crew was Mexican, most probably illegals.

A couple of weeks ago, I made a trip to Old River.  A large construction crew was working on the Morganza Spillway Structure. Every person on the work crew was Mexican, most likely illegals.

Then last week, I was leaving Jackson Park subdivision in Central and there was a crew of workers working at Sullivan and Gurney roads. All the workers were Mexican, most likely illegals.

What in the HE Double L is going on?  Americans are out of work and the federal and local governments are hiring illegals to do the work in this country.  Why is this happening in Central?

Who in the Central school system, which authorized the work at Sullivan and Gurney, allowed this to take place?  I am one citizen who is fed up with people at any level of government who do not understand what the word “illegal” means.

I don’t care to hear that it was a sub-contractor who hired these illegals to work on our streets.

All contracts with our government should demand that only U.S. citizens be employed to do the work.   It’s time to stop employing these illegals and start employing U.S citizens!
