Legal residents in Nevada especially high school students, seniors and others are celebrating the return of job opportunities. Not only had jobs been knowingly given to illegal aliens by a Nevada McDonald's franchisee, Mack Associates Inc, but top management had been offering illegals new names and social security numbers which belonged to other people. The company operated 11 McDonald's restaurants in Nevada.US Justice Department officials said the company pleaded guilty yesterday in federal court in Las Vegas to conspiracy to encourage and induce an alien's unlawful residence in the United States and aiding and abetting an alien to remain in the country. The company was fined $1 million after pleading guilty to employing 58 illegal immigrants. In addition the Director of Operations and a former Vice President plead guilty to aiding and abetting an alien to remain in the country and face possible sentences of up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
This legal victory, although to date rare, in the government's crackdown on employers of illegal aliens is the one of the critical tools that the government can use to reduce enticing illegal aliens to seek employment within the United States. We also need mandatory employee verification which has been blocked by activist judges and a comprehensive immigration reform plan similar to the plan detailed by former Sen. Fred Thompson.
