BAC Opposes White House Efforts Against Lawful Immigrants

[Washington, DC] - The International Union of Bricklayers and Allied Craftworkers (BAC) joined the AFL-CIO and other affiliated unions in contesting the Trump administration’s effort to rescind work authorization for immigrants who have lawfully complied with existing immigration law.

“This effort by the administration is unjust to those BAC members who have fulfilled all legal obligations to work in this country” said Timothy J. Driscoll, president of the BAC. “It will cause unnecessary damage to BAC signatory contractors that employ these affected members, and lead to irreparable harm to many and varied communities across our country. BAC rejects this effort to pit worker against worker.”
