Federal officials arrested 97 immigrants at a meat-processing plant in rural Tennessee on Thursday in what civil rights organizations said was the largest single workplace raid in a decade and a sign that the Trump administration is carrying out its plan to aggressively ramp up enforcement this year.
Ten people were arrested on federal immigration charges, one person was arrested on state charges and 86 immigrants were detained for being in the country illegally, Tammy Spicer, a spokeswoman for Immigration and Customs Enforcement, said in a statement Friday. All of those arrested are suspected of being in the country illegally, she said. Immigration advocates said most were from Mexico....
In a federal affidavit, IRS Special Agent Nicholas Worsham said the family-run plant is under criminal investigation for allegedly evading taxes, filing false tax returns and hiring immigrants in the country illegally.
He alleged the facility failed to report $8.4 million in wages and to pay at least $2.5 million in payroll taxes for dozens of undocumented workers.
Federal agents began investigating the company months ago after Citizens Bank employees noticed that Southeastern Provision was withdrawing large sums of cash every week - more than $25 million since 2008. Worsham said the plant hired undocumented workers who were paid in cash and subject to harsh conditions, including long hours without overtime and exposure to bleach and other chemicals without protective eyewear.
Trump’s decision to impose tariffs on imported steel and aluminum, plus $50 billion in additional products, has provoked two waves of retaliation by China against American farmers who export pork, beef, soybeans and sorghum. The Wall Street Journal reports those measures are deliberately aimed at hurting Trump’s base, and they are succeeding.
The Brookings Institution calculated the impact of China’s initial sanctions against farm products (except for wine, a geographical anomaly): 65 percent of the affected workers live in counties carried by Trump.
The trade war is not the only way Trump’s policies are punishing agriculture. The president’s crackdown on immigration -- from lowering refugee quotas to accelerating the deportation of undocumented workers -- has already been shrinking the supply of workers willing to pick crops, pluck poultry and pack meat.
