Day labor centers at new stores
In the first step to control day laborers at large home improvement stores, the Los Angeles City Council on Wednesday approved a measure that could require big box stores to develop centers to provide shelter for the workers. Daily News.
The measure, which several officials said was aimed at Home Depot and its 11 stores in the city, will apply only to stores of 100,000 square feet or larger that will be built - or if existing stores are undergoing major renovation.
The measure still requires the mayor's signature. Most city laws take effect 30 days afterward.

This is one of the reasons I moved from Los Angeles. Why in the world would you build hiring centers for illegals?. What don't you get about the word illegal? In the eyes of the legal citizens of the United States, Los angeles could not drop much further than it has already. Shame, shame on the City Council.
