Where Not to Eat: Chipotle CEO Allies w/ La Raza, Lobbies for Immigration Amnesty
If you like Mexican-style fast food but support a secure and safe America, don’t eat at Chipotle. I already told you, months ago, about Chipotle’s knowing employment of thousands of illegal aliens, which it was forced to fire, after Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) investigations showed that in many cases, more than half of its employees were illegal aliens. There is no way that, when more than half your employees are illegal aliens, you don’t know about it. Now, Chipotle’s “co-leader” (that’s testicle-less liberal psycho-babble for “CEO”) Monty Moran wants immigration amnesty, and he’s allied with the reconquistador illegal alien lobby to do it. Is that really the definition of “food with integrity,” as Chipotle proclaims its product to be? That’s despite the fact that for every single opening he has at his restaurants, there are 30-40 applicants. The problem is that many of those are U.S. citizen applicants. And–ya know–we can’t have that in America . . . Americans being hired for the jobs that Americans supposedly “just won’t do.”
Chipotle & Co-Leader Monty Moran: Food w/ Racist La Raza Reconquistador “Integrity”
Moreover, Moron, er . . . Moran, met with racist, reconquista La Raza to form an alliance and strategize on how to achieve nationwide amnesty for illegal aliens. Given that, you should assume that your taco dollars helped finance a contribution to La Raza from the Chipotle co-scumbag. Remember this BS the next time you get a hankering for a Chipotle burrito:
In a so-called silent raid, Immigration and Customs Enforcement inspected the chain’s hiring records and found more than 500 undocumented workers, who had to leave the Denver-based company. It had to let go more than half of its 900 employees in Minnesota and lost others to federal scrutiny of outlets in Washington, D.C., and Virginia.
The enforcement moves left some Chipotle restaurants struggling to operate as managers rushed to train replacements. Finding qualified workers has become a continuing challenge. . . .
Chipotle says its employee annual turnover at its restaurants nationwide has risen to more than 125% since the investigation from below 100%. Triple-digit turnover rates are common in the fast-food industry, where companies may have to fill the same job multiple times a year. Chipotle also says managers in some markets are interviewing 30 to 40 candidates to fill one opening, compared with 10 previously. At a recent job fair in Washington state, Chipotle hired just eight of the 100 people it interviewed.
“We have to look a lot harder,” says Mr. Moran, the company’s co-chief executive. The experience has turned the 45-year-old Mr. Moran into a vocal advocate for changing U.S. immigration laws. In recent months, he has met with Sens. Michael Bennet and Mark Udall, both Colorado Democrats, and Charles Schumer, a New York Democrat, as well as Republican Reps. Darrell Issa of California and Lamar Smith of Texas. His message: fix immigration. . . .
He has told lawmakers he needs access to a strong, legal work force. A temporary guest-worker program, advocated by some lawmakers, might work in sectors like agriculture, but it doesn’t address the needs of a business that requires qualified labor on a year-round basis, he says.
Fast-growing Chipotle has much at stake in the immigration debate. . . . The chain, which says it expects to hire 100,000 workers in the next three years, sees immigrants as vital to its success. About half its workers are Hispanics, including many in management roles. Chipotle also regards immigrants as important customers for its premium burritos and tacos.
Ah, see there’s the money quote. Its customers are “immigrants,” many of them here illegally. And that’s what’s going on here. This testosterone-challenged “co-leader” of Chipotle is playing politics with our safety and our borders. He’s taking political positions favored by his illegal alien customers and positions which helped his bottom line until ICE caught on. Yet, unlike top officials from other corporations caught by ICE knowingly hiring illegal aliens, this “co-leader” hasn’t been sentenced to being a co-boyfriend in prison. Or even charged with breaking the law, which he surely knew he was doing. Again, you don’t have illegal aliens comprising more than half your workforce and not know about it. The co-leader knew and he co-conspired. And he was the top dog at a major law firm before taking over, er . . . “co-leading,” Chipotle. There’s no excuse.
Mr. Moran, who was chief executive of a Denver law firm before joining Chipotle in 2005. . . . When checking documents of potential employees, “our goal was to be zealous, but not overzealous,” he says.
Translation: we did as little as possible to make sure we were not hiring illegal aliens. What is “overzealous” in checking fake IDs of illegal aliens? There is no such thing.
Chipotle still is under investigation by the U.S. attorney’s office for the District of Columbia. A spokesman for the office said it doesn’t confirm or discuss probes. ICE also declined to comment.
Don’t worry. Chipotle will get away with it. The Obama administration isn’t serious about enforcing immigration laws. In fact, as we all know, the Obama administration is serious about NOT enforcing them and going after states that try to do the job the Obamaniks and ICE won’t do. Plus Chipotle hired known racist and “blackface expert” Julie L. Myers a/k/a “The ICE Princess” and paid her hundreds of thousands of dollars to talk ICE and the feds into not going after Chipotle. (The chain also hired Barack Obama campaign lawyer and White House Counsel and the man who sent Elian Gonzalez back to Cuba, Greg Craig.) Chipotle spokespeople declined to respond to inquiries regarding Myers and why the purported “socially responsible” company hired a woman who gave an award to an employee for his racist “blackface” Halloween costume.
Mr. Moran says he gave an earful to . . . Rep. Smith, who is chairman of the House Judiciary Committee and a fierce foe of illegal immigration. He also spoke against a proposed guest-worker program that would bring foreign labor to the U.S. only temporarily.
“I don’t want to use them and send them off,” Mr. Moran says he told the representatives.”We want people to develop long-term careers with us.”
Um, dude, then here’s a tip: HIRE. AMERICANS. Even illegal aliens aren’t gonna work the taco assembly line making minimum wage forever. That’s the nature of the fast food biz. People move on, just as McDonald’s and Burger King workers do. Chipotle has no right to take (illegal) cuts or further jeopardize America’s national security to get ahead.
A Judiciary Committee staff member confirmed that Rep. Smith had a “courtesy meeting” with Mr. Moran at Chipotle’s request, but declined to comment on the discussion. . . .
The chain also has worked to cultivate its relationship with Hispanic and immigrant groups. Two senior Chipotle executives have met with officials at the National Council of La Raza, a prominent Hispanic advocacy organization.
Wow, given many of La Raza’s statements and posters, I hope co-leader Moron/Moran didn’t send White people. Check out the La Raza poster, above, which apparently Chipotle doesn’t have a problem with. Does the chain agree that Whites should get out? I vote that the first one who should go is Mr. Dear Co-Leader, Monty Moran.
”
Having been hit pretty hard, they were convinced they had to get involved in public policy discussion,” says Charles Kawasaki, the group’s senior vice president.
Again, if Chipotle is now allying and strategizing with the racist, anti-American La Raza, how much money is Chipotle giving the group? Unless Chipotle and La Raza open their books, you’ll never know, so it’s safer never to eat there and take the risk that you are giving even a penny to these bigots.
Remember, if you eat at Chipotle, you’re not just buying a taco, you’re funding the “Reconquista.”
