The border crisis continues to worsen. Millions of illegal immigrants have poured across our southern border. I’ve never seen anything like it. Many find their way to sanctuary states like California.
These sanctuary policies shield illegal immigrants from federal immigration enforcement. Local officials refuse to cooperate with ICE. Businesses take advantage of the situation. And honestly, who’s stopping them?
One healthcare provider has taken things a step further.
A Sacramento-based healthcare company appears to be openly admitting to employing illegal immigrants. The shocking revelation comes from an internal document obtained by The Daily Wire.
A Disturbing Admission
WellSpace Health, a non-profit community health system, made the admission while reprimanding an employee who accurately described illegal aliens as “criminals.”
“Referring to individuals being deported by ICE is inappropriate,” the company wrote in the document obtained by The Daily Wire.
“At WellSpace Health, we serve and employ this population as we aim to avoid offending our patients and staff,” it went on to say, seemingly confirming that the company knowingly employs illegal aliens.
The document shows WellSpace Health not only acknowledging they employ illegal immigrants, but also threatening an employee who simply stated facts about immigration law. You truly can’t make this stuff up.
The company demanded the employee complete a “bias in healthcare” training course. They also required a performance evaluation and a “personal improvement plan.” Failure to comply would result in termination.
Sound familiar? It’s the classic leftist playbook.
Speaking Truth Comes With Consequences
The employee’s “offense” was remarkably mild. According to the document, he simply stated, “I feel that ICE is only deporting criminals and not regular people. People shouldn’t be afraid.”
This factual statement triggered the company’s harsh response. The employee eventually resigned rather than submit to ideological retraining. Can you blame him?
In his resignation letter, the employee defended his position. He noted that crossing into the United States without authorization is illegal under federal law. He called the bias training requirement “offensive and unprofessional.”
WellSpace Health did not respond to inquiries about their statement that illegal aliens are members of their staff. Their silence speaks volumes, doesn’t it?
The Law Is Clear
Federal law explicitly prohibits hiring illegal immigrants. The Department of Homeland Security has recently conducted enforcement actions against businesses that knowingly employ illegal aliens.
Two bakery owners in southern Texas were arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement after allegedly admitting to hiring and harboring illegal aliens.
These business owners knew they were breaking the law. Now WellSpace Health appears to be doing the same thing – and documenting it in writing. I’m amazed at the brazenness.
California’s sanctuary policies may embolden companies like WellSpace Health. However, federal law still applies, even in sanctuary states. When did we decide some laws just don’t matter anymore?
While California politicians shield illegal immigrants from enforcement, healthcare companies like WellSpace Health seem to be openly flouting federal law. American workers and legal immigrants deserve better.
We can only imagine how many other woke California businesses are openly employing illegal immigrants while punishing employees who speak the truth.
Key Takeaways:
- WellSpace Health explicitly admitted in writing they “employ this population” of illegal immigrants, violating federal law.
- The company threatened termination of an employee for simply stating facts about illegal immigration.
- Employees are being forced to undergo “bias training” for expressing legally accurate statements about immigration.
- While California shields illegal immigrants, federal authorities are arresting business owners elsewhere for the same practices.
