Do your job within the framework of our laws. Doesn’t seem difficult. Spend more time whining than working on solution.

Good. Ms. Rometty and the other 59 leaders pay fantastic living wages, then those legal immigrants don't have go on welfare. foreignworkerabusers legalworkersillegalwages

These billionaires don’t care about the billions in public benefits these illegals receive as long as their companies benefit from cheap labor while the tax payers pay for it lowering wages working Americans

Why are corporations hiring illegal aliens profits

Apparently hiring illegals is Big Business.

realDonaldTrump End DACA! No extensions! End chain migration! End anchor babies! End federal benefits! Merit backed immigration! “E” verify! Rewrite asylum rules! Build the wall! DEPORT! DEPORT!

Because they can’t extort helpless Hispanics to clean their houses?

Illegal is illegal.

RT EricRWeinstein You know why we developed the H-1B visa Marc? It was to weaken American workers’ bargaining positions so much that they would be *forced* to mitigate their wage demands at your bargaining table. It’s a wage tampering program.

Reign of Hate flagging?

How pathetic! Perhaps if they were truly concerned, they would be supporting MERIT BASED immigration, instead of allowing uneducated people to take precedent over those who will not milk the system!!!

It's illegal immigration. Those businesses 'leaders' are traitors to the USA and the American Worker.

So what. Adjust.

The law prohibits immigrants from receiving public benefits for 5 years. Are we a country of laws or not?

That’s just too bad !!!

And we wonder why we can't fix immigration! So...are they going to hold their breath until they turn Blue?

BS

“crack down” meaning enforcing existing law...

Yes these business leaders, want to always have very cheap labor with no rights and never increase the employees pat. Everyone just think about themselves. Like always.

WTH?

Fuck every single one of those losers.

Hire America's, you criminals.

TRUMP WILL LOSE tariff war W/ China by lying that a deal had been struck. The stock mkt, investors, & all others DO NOT TRUST DONALD! China knows this & will play Trump time & again. A deal? YES:TELL ALL. Next day: A deal? NO:TELL ALL…AGAIN & AGAIN. IS THIS A LIE ALSO?

Except when he comes to hiring illegal immigrants at realDonaldTrump golf clubs.....that seems to be ok

So these businesses can replace American workers with cheap foreign labor. Don’t think it’s about anything else.

Oh well. That’s corporate welfare. Sorry. Let’s normalize things- if you can’t make it on your own without taxpayers subsiding your employees then you don’t really have a viable business model.

I’m not a WSJ subscriber, so I can’t read this full article... Does it list the 100 businesses?

Those business leaders should be investigated.

What they're really afraid of is not being able to get by with substandard wages and for some not being able to abuse the Illegals that are hiding out. We shouldn't be paying benefits for all the people who didn't earn them like we had to.

You want to hire them you pay for their benefits.

cheap labor

Why is this even a question? Who cares what some 'business leaders' think? NO BENEFITS FOR ILLEGALS, DEPORT THEM ALL NOW. Anyone who disagrees either hates this country, is ignorant and brainwashed, or in the case of businesspeople, has something to gain (cheap labor).

Why can’t the business leaders pay these costs without passing them on to the taxpayers?

This is the first time I have ever heard of something being 'unduly legal'

What? Sounds like liberal logic time.
