Federal agents raided six Swift & Co. processing plants in six states on Tuesday in search of illegal immigrants who stole the identities of lawful U.S. residents and used their Social Security numbers to get jobs at the beef and pork company.
Agents from the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency executed search warrants at Swift’s processing facilities in Greeley, Colo.; Grand Island, Neb.; Cactus, Texas; Hyrum, Utah; Marshalltown, Iowa; and Worthington, Minn.

ICE arrested 1300 in all 6 plants and 237 in Worthington. I talked to my mom and I was surprised by her perspective. She said….”why are they arresting those who are working? Why don’t they arrest those on welfare who don’t want to work”
Well, she has a good point there.
