$5B Tax Dollars to Fund a Plant Hiring 475 Illegals Out of 1200 workers
By M Dowling -September 6, 20251

Joe Biden promised 8,000 good paying jobs for Americans in a Georgia Hyundai plant that Americans funded. It is the same company that was raided this week. ICE captured 475 illegal alien workers out of the 1200 currently working in the plant. The plant was built with $5 billion tax dollars.

They should be fined $5 billion to make us square.
 
It’s a Korean car company and most of the illegals were Korean.

This is the second time a Hyundai plant in Georgia has been raided by ICE. In February of this year a plant in Rome, Georgia was raided.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

How many of those illegals are employees of Hyundai in Korea who were sent to the U.S. plant by the Korean parent company?  That happens more often than one would think.

From an AP article (source linked below):

He said that some of the detained workers had illegally crossed the U.S. border, while others had entered the country legally but had expired visas or had entered on a visa waiver that prohibited them from working.

That happens more than one would think, particularly with skilled workers who are sent to a plant being constructed for a temporary period - which often becomes longer than originally planned due to delays in the construction/commissioning schedule - because it's very cumbersome - even though perfectly legal - to bring one's own employees in for short periods of time to work on a project one is running in the U.S.
