Wait, wait, wait! Am I reading the article correctly? Did it say the Florida Chamber of Commerce and Accociated Industries of Florida favor breaking Florida and Federal law in order to put $$$ in someone’s pockets? This article has not convinced me that more $$$ are going into Florida’s treasure chest than the illegals are taking out! Yes.$$$ are going into the pockets of the few illegals who can find work, but I suspect many more $$$ are going into the pockets of the business’ that hire them.
This is NOT a grey area in the law! Illegal immigration is illegal, PERIOD! Why is that so hard to understand?
Sure there are illegals in the Florida workforce, but FCC and the AIF are trying to tell us that these working illegals are contributing MORE than all the illegals combined are costing the taxpaying US/Florida citizens? I gotta call Bullfeathers on this! Show us the true and unbiased numbers to support these allegations! I double-dog dare you!

As the previous writer said, it is a terrible examble to set for the future business owners of the US/Florida. These organizations are saying it’s ok for a business to break the law if there is a profit in it for them.
That is akin to saying it’s ok to break into someone’s house if you can make a few $$$ from it. SHAME ON YOU!

Shame, shame, shame on The Florida Chamber of Commerce and Associated Industries of Florida. Accrding to this article, they do not want to enforce current immigration laws because “foreign-born workers, both legal and illegal, bring more to the table economically than they take away in state expenses for education, criminal justice, health and social service programs. ‘

It is unacceptable for our business leaders to advocate breaking the law, in order for them to profit. That is a terrible example to set for our young people and future business leaders. Disgusting! They should be run out on a rail!
