Venezuelan and Colombian migrants living at Union Rescue Mission in L.A. say they are working at Southern California hotels where workers are on strike.

When Norelis Vargas heard about housekeeping work at a hotel near Los Angeles International Airport, she did not hesitate to sign up. Vargas, 39, who migrated from Venezuela and entered the U.S. about three months ago seeking asylum, had been living with her husband and three children for months at Union Rescue Mission, a homeless shelter on Skid Row, and needed the income. But when she arrived at Four Points by Sheraton on Oct.

Alinne Espinoza, who is listed as the registered agent for both staffing agencies said her business is properly licensed and operates legally. 'Our company works with many different types of people that come from our local community,' she said in an email.
