Mini-cast: Break the Chains, Pt II (w/ David Tieu)
Part II of our mini-cast series on undocumented workers and the fight to repeal the employers’ sanctions provision of the Immigration Reform and Control Act (in collaboration with the Break the Chains Alliance). We talk to David Tieu, a member of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 3, about working on the Hudson Yards project in New York City and seeing firsthand how employers exploit undocumented workers and undercut unions.
