We started cooling measures by putting water on his paw pads and gave him room temperature fluids, reducing his temperature and then moved him to the veterinarian for treatment.”-Specialist Emily Zygarowski

A leftist-liberal PBS report finally admits that many illegals are getting paid more than citizens, it’s because employers don’t want to own up to their legal responsibilities regarding citizen workers and they are willing to pay more to an illegal in order to avoid legal responsibilities: “Employers are constantly crying that they have a labor shortage. Why? Because employers like the labor market dynamics of hiring illegal labor.”Dan Stein
