Topic: UCLA provides internship opportunities to illegal immigrants (Read 437 times)

legit business?...UCLA isn't even a business, it's just liberal breeding ground funded by taxpayers.

No Kidding. How can any legit business hire anyone without a SS#? Internship. Where I work you have to be at least a junior in college, have to apply, face a
background check, drug test, and usually a recommendation from someone internal. Basically no one where I work wants to risk someone stealing anything, disrespecting anyone and where all the interns are related to associates it guarantees the best.

Taxpayer ID number. Same way legal immigrants get paid.


It's not for illegals only. It's for immigrants regardless of status.

If you were looking for work you might care. People who shouldnt even be here are taking jobs from people who could use them.

Yeah, this just entrenches the idea that being an illegal immigrant is 'ok'. why not just open the doors and say f-it?

A bad idea, setting a bad precedent.

You know how the left always brags that Obama has more deportations than Bush, well Obama can pad his numbers if he raided the UCLA work place.

And what about E-verify? If I applied for a job at UC wouldn't they ask me for proof of citizenship and an I-9 form?

The left talks about removing what entices illegals to come here and one of those things are the employers who hire them. Well, what do you say now?

Less opportunity for U.S. Citizens and children born and raised in California legally.

My children won't be following my path through the U.C. system. What a theft on those that pay taxes for those schools.

That would be racist.

It would make a lot more sense to detain an old white woman on suspicion of being an illegal immigrant. We wouldn't want to be unfair and assume most illegal immigrants are Hispanic. We might hurt their feelings, even when they are blatant and outspoken about their citizenship status.

Most blacks don't really care...they are not afraid of Latin people like white conservatives. Black are more worried about education, gang violence/police violence and white racism.

How do you advertise this?

Like, I feel like if I was ICE, I would sit outside until the illegal showed up, and then simply detain them.

But then again, we invited illegals into the white house and they managed to walk in and out untouched.

They might not need one in CA. It wouldn't surprise me.

The black community thought the had a lock on minority status but the Dems know there are a hell of alot more hispanics than blacks. I wonder how American blacks feel about this when they could use a internship and not a bunch of illegals.

The UC system is filled with sanctuary universities.

How does an illegal get a "paid" internship with no Social Security number?

What do you expect? It's Mexifornia!

You'd think there would be a lot of upset poor Americans in California wondering where their job opportunities are, but there aren't.

They're completely oblivious to things like this because they've been placated with a few hundred dollars a week in welfare and blinded with ignorance as to the reason why they've been locked into the permanent underclass.

So liberals in California are free to ignore the needs of Americans while they violate dozens of federal laws and pander to the illegal plague.

Every now and then some liberal will accuse a Republican of not caring about the poor.

As hypocritically laughable as that notion is the reality is that a lot of us indeed don't care.

Personally I don't care about California's poor one damn bit.

I don't care because the poor don't care, the liberals they vote for don't care, and the Brown invaders don't care.

Suffer people, you earned it.

LOL is all I can say. Liberals are so adorable or just pandering to votes. I wonder if part of the application requires they vote D?

People whine about businesses that hire illegal immigrants but see nothing wrong with giving them paid internships?

At this point all you can do is laugh.

Illegal immigrant students in California are actualizing their dreams this summer.

The UCLA Labor Center’s Dream Resource Center is allowing undocumented students to apply for Dream Summer, a ten-week summer program that provides paid internship opportunities for immigrants in California, regardless of their immigration or insurance status. The program will encourage them to advocate for immigration reform and promote universal health care access regardless of immigration status.

The Center says the program began in 2011 after the U.S. Senate failed to pass the DREAM Act in 2010, which would have given a path to citizenship to illegal immigrants who came to the United states before the age of 16. The program claims to have provided 418 internship opportunities to immigrant youth throughout the nation.

UCLA is among the growing number of University of California schools, including UC San Diego and UC Berkeley, to provide academic scholarships and opportunities exclusively for illegal immigrants, some of whom move on to become active spokesmen for immigration reform.

The US Census Bureau reports that as of July 1, 2014, Hispanics were the predominant ethnic population of California’s roughly 14.99 million residents. An estimated 68 percent of the state’s undocumented population is Mexican-born.

Seth Ronquillo, a spokesman for the Dream Resource Center, told the Daily Bruin, “Many of the participants in the program go on to become the leaders of the immigration reform movement. By working in social justice organizations, they are given the resources they need to continue in activism.”
