to respond saying that the corporation would begin using E-Verify to confirm employees’ legal status “on all of our properties as soon as possible.” And, after an audit of all employees, the organization said it fired at least 18 people. But the construction crew appears not to have been touched by those changes. And while Mobile Payroll Construction LLC claims to use the E-Verify program, its name does not appear in the E-Verify database as of July 1.
Trump of course denied any knowledge of hiring undocumented workers, saying in response to media questions in July, “Well, that I don’t know. Because I don’t run it. But I would say this: Probably every club in the United States has that, because it seems to me, from what I understand, a way that people did business.”
Yes, it’s a way that people do business, but just this past week, the Trump Administration carried out the largest single-state immigration enforcement action in U.S. history, arresting some 680 alleged undocumented employees of food processing plants in Mississippi. But thus far, no such raids have occurred on Trump properties.
