Episode 47: 7-Eleven hit first by ICE raids on employers in 2018, more coming

Raids on 7-Eleven stores by U.S. Immigration and Customs agents signal an escalation by the federal government to target employers for hiring undocumented workers. On this week’s Working Lunch podcast, the Align crew cautions all retailers and restaurant operators about the urgency of being compliant and why more raids are expected. The other big story this week on Working Lunch is over the tip credit fight. Servers trying to protect their tipped income are organizing and taking their case to Washington D.C. and around the country. Also on the show, Democrats announced plans to highlight Trump’s labor policies to go after Republicans during elections, but what impact will that have on key races around the country? Those stories plus the legislative scorecard including updates on wages, paid leave and other labor issues.
