    illegally imports labor under tourist visas and professional training visas from Mexico at 15% of what they have to pay the US worker, to work in their warehouses in the US displacing US employees.

    True MAGA, supporting american workers by paying mexican workers for a full day waht the US worker makes in an hour doing same job for same company.

    Had the misfortune of crossing paths with the owners of this company in Naples where they recently built a massive warehouse. Heard about the direct line to djt more than once, so did most every permitting agency that had anything to do with the project..truly a bad human..birds of a feather

    Uline turned to Mexico to staff warehouses, but paid them a fraction of US workers, sources say

    Uline, a Wisconsin-based office supply company owned by one of Donald Trump’s biggest financial backers, paid workers it brought from Mexico to work at its US warehouses just a fraction of what their US counterparts were paid, according to four sources who spoke to the Guardian.

    The workers from Mexico earned per day about the same as their US counterparts were paid by the hour, according to the American and Mexican sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of nervousness about speaking out publicly against the company. One pay stub, which was seen by the Guardian, showed that a Mexican worker was paid about $38 per day, plus a weekly bonus of about $225 before taxes. Separately, they were also paid daily food expenses.

    ..................................

    The new revelations follow a story the Guardian published in December, about a so-called “shuttle program” at the company, which Uline used to bring workers from its warehouses in Mexico to its warehouses in the US, especially Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

    The Mexican workers traveled to the US using tourist visas and visas meant for employees who enter the US temporarily to receive professional training, known as B1 visas, and not for regular work. Sources with direct knowledge of the matter alleged the Mexican employees stayed for one to six months and performed normal work at the company.

    "Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.” Prophetically written by Frank Wilhoit.
