Our Undocumented Migrant Worker “Problem”

The crackdown on undocumented workers that began on July 1st has to date detained upwards of 20,000 migrants. Termed Ops Mega 3.0, this operation - which came after the conclusion of the rehiring programme in June - aims to deport illegal immigrants and punish employers who hire them. Adrian Pereira, executive director at the North-South Initiative, provides an update on the raids.
