    The visas did not allow employment, but were valid for work-related travel. As they were employees of a foreign company here on behalf of the foreign company the visas were valid for that purpose. ICE changed the meaning of those visas after the fact to save face and justify their illegal raid and detentions.

          All the articles I saw said there were 475 people detained/inspected and 300+ were Korean. That’s nearly a 2 to 1 ratio of ‘supervisors’ to workers, which seems pretty sus, even for a union gig.
