A job an American won’t take
Check out this story about the abuse of a domestic servant. This a why we need to know who is in the country. We can’t protect people we don’t know are here. Women, I suspect, are more hidden than the day laborers standing on the street corner.

“This a why we need to know who is in the country. We can’t protect people we don’t know are here.”
I have never heard it put so succinctly. Amen.
I’m horrified by the stories I hear of brothels populated by women and children trafficked into the US from other countries and held in sexual slavery here. But I wonder how many invisible slaves are hidden in private homes like the one in this story?
And, I confess, every time we drive past the Saudi embassy in DC, I wonder how many women are enslaved there behind the walls of diplomatic immunity.
