SEIU dividing over "guest" workers vs. amnesty for all

The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) was deeply involved in last year's illegal immigration marches. However, their president Andy Stern only goes as far as supporting the Senate amnesty schemes which include "guest" worker plots. Other SEIU members go even further, opposing "guest" workers and demanding legalization for all illegal aliens [1].

The open borders side of things is represented by the California group of SEIU members calling themselves "No Worker is Illegal". One of their leaders is Renee Saucedo of the City of San Francisco's Day Labor Program. One of those on Stern's side is SEIU Vice President Eliseo Medina.

As for those of us on the American side of things, I'd suggest that the SEIU being seen as extremist as possible is the best outcome, with the SEIU being split into two over "guest" workers vs. complete amnesty being the second best outcome.

[1] Needless to say, that would be the equivalent of an open borders plan. Millions more illegal aliens would come here in expectation of receiving the next amnesty. And, if they support across the board legalization now, there's very little chance they would oppose it for those new illegal aliens. Repeat ad infinitum.

Hi, D Flinchum. Not many, but bet they're tending his garden and playing nanny to his silver-spooned litter.

Jeebie is right, the government must love SEIU, Its the government who hates our freedoms and will use anyone to make us into mexico. see the facts that our in front of you!

Stern is an Ivy-League educated guy making well over $200K in salary. How many day laborer sites and houses with 20 people living in them do you think he has in HIS neighborhood?

Could it be that 50 percent? of SEIU members are also members of the criminal forces illegally invading America? All that fake ID floating around, how hard is it to join a union after stealing an Americans job and identity? With the exception of the IBEW, it seems every union is siding with amnesty. Used to be the union fought to keep the American worker well protected, guess they won't mind impoverishing their members with lower wages, so long as they get more dues paying members in return. Pathetic.
