Why not? Don't illegal aliens deserve a union to protect their rights? ""It's an industry that has much higher rates of abuse than other sectors," said organizer Andrea Mercado of Oakland-based Mujeres Unidas y Activas (United and Active Women). "Domestic workers are excluded from a lot of labor laws. They don't have a right to organize a union, they don't have the same right to overtime."
Are they here legally? "As evidence of the vulnerability of the nation's domestic workforce, which is dominated by immigrants, many of them undocumented, organizers have pointed to several egregious cases in the Bay Area. A Walnut Creek homeowner was convicted of forced labor last month after her Peruvian live-in nanny told police."
Should domestic workers be protected? Yes? Should illegal aliens be deported? Should those who knowingly hire illegal aliens be punished? Yes.
The problem here is that law enforcement stood by and watched illegal aliens hold a demonstration, instead of arresting them. Of course, this was San Francisco, the home of illegal aliens.
