Broken Immigration System Hurts Texas Construction Workers, Industry
The nationās broken immigration system is creating a crisis for workers and employers in the Texas construction industry. A new study by the Workers Defense Project ( WDP ) and the University of Texas finds that as many as half of the Lone Star Stateās construction workers may be undocumented. Says WDP Executive Director Cristina Tzintzun:
Our immigration policies are broken. Theyāre not working for businesses, theyāre not working for our workers and theyāre not working for our state.
