Investigation urged into immigration practices of company owned by Maga donors

AI Summary

medium article 3 min

Milwaukee City Council member JoCasta Zamarripa is calling for an investigation into the immigration practices of Uline, an office supply company owned by major Republican donors Liz and Richard Uihlein. The call follows a Guardian report alleging Uline misused "shuttle programs" to bring Mexican workers to U.S. facilities in Wisconsin, Florida, and Pennsylvania using visas intended for training, not full-time employment. The program reportedly ended in late 2024 after initial reporting by the Guardian. Zamarripa alleges the Uihleins, who support politicians backing immigration crackdowns, are exploiting immigrant workers. Uline, a privately held company with an estimated $8 billion in annual revenue, has declined to comment on the allegations.
