    Do you mean the bridge in baltimore? We lost 6 immigrants on that one, all of them with families. It’s heartbreaking.

      I did. But yeah every time I read an article about some worker dying these days I swear it mentions they were immigrants or are being represented by an immigrant group because they literally didn’t have the legal protections themselves.

      I’m so tired of it. And hearing that people that died due to negligence of any origin doesn’t make me feel great but this is telling of who is considered disposable labor.

      If we can’t treat people like humans we don’t deserve to be relying on their labor.
