8 - The Michigan Daily - Monday, May 22, 2006 0 RAIDS Continued from Page 2 12 million illegal immigrants to apply for citizenship, adding that such a system is not amnesty. Latinos Unidos is against the guest-worker bill in any form. "Employers are having a field day being able to exploit workers," said Latinos Unidos member Elena Herrada. "There are no fines, no fees, no risks for the employers. The risk is all on the workers. The guest-worker bill would legalize all of that." Latinos Unidos held a community meet- ing Monday, also attended by ICE officers, to protest the raids and to form strategies to prevent future aggression. "We don't have answers for militarizing the border, but we do know (that) communi- ties where we live we must defend people's human rights," Herrada said. Co-director of the University's Institute of Labor and Industrial Relations and RC Prof. Ian Robinson said illegal immigrants are vulnerable to exploitation because they have come across the border covertly and would be fired if they do not accept the wages and working conditions offered to them. "They have to risk their lives to work for the crappiest jobs in my country," he said. Robinson said that Bush - who has expe- rience governing a border state - began his presidency under the premise that he would forge better relations between the United States and Mexico. Bush had to win the support of Hispanic voters and planned to do so by paying more attention to the situation of immigrant work- ers, Robinson said. Robinson said Bush now caters to the xenophobic and far-right members of the Republican Party while still trying to pro- mote immigration reform. Herrada said Bush "really tried to walk the line" because there is a large constituency of Mexicans in the United States he does not want to offend. But at the same time, Herrada said Bush did not want to upset the business cohort of the Republican Party. "He also didn't want to break up a deal with his friends," Herrada said. "That is why he supports the guest worker bill - it pro- vides a permanent underclass," she said. Robinson said business-minded members on both sides favor a liberal policy on immigra- tion. Whether that requires legalization or an increase in guest-workers, he said, is insignifi- cant as long as cheap work is plentiful. "Both parties have a business base that contributes a lot of money to the party, without which they wouldn't be competi- tive," he said. For Republicans, bases consist of the Christian right and cultural conservatives, for Democrats, organized labor and social- movement groups. "The Republican mass wing is having a hell of a time. The party is at loggerheads on this. The Democrats, for once, are less divided than the Republicans," Robinson said, pointing out that Democrats are able to have a liberal stance without alienating a large portion of their party.
