A workplace raid in Allen, Texas, by Immigration and Customs Enforcement led to the arrests of 280 workers suspected of illegally working in the United States.
ICE agents descended Wednesday on CVE Technology Group, a shop known for refurbishing and repairing consumer electronics, in what is being called the largest workplace raid in over a decade, according to KERA News. The Department of Homeland Security responded to tips that workers at the company may have been using fake identification to become employed, allegedly with the company's knowledge. An investigation into employee tax forms corroborated the claims.
ICE agents will interview the detained individuals and will identify any "humanitarian situations" that could allow individuals to be released temporarily, including those related to medical needs or family situations where children are only cared for by the person who was arrested. Others who do not meet such criteria will remain in custody. However, ICE said that "all illegal aliens encountered will be fingerprinted and processed for removal from the United States."
The country's largest workplace raid occurred in 2008 in Postville, Iowa, where 400 workers were arrested at Agriprocessors, a slaughterhouse and meat packing factory.
