Mexico's Sheinbaum Counters Trump Deportations With Tens of Thousands of Jobs for Returned Citizens
Summary
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum launched the "México te abraza" employment program to help citizens deported under Donald Trump reintegrate into the workforce.
In partnership with the Consejo Coordinador Empresarial, over 220 companies have posted 63,880 vacancies nationwide, surpassing a January pledge to create 50,000 jobs.
Roles span sectors like agriculture and construction, with salaries ranging from $424 to over $2,000 USD monthly. Key employers include Walmart, Grupo Bimbo, and CEMEX.
The initiative aims to provide “dignified, well-paying work” and leverage U.S. labor experience for Mexico’s economic benefit.
I’m horrified by what my government is doing right now, but if one of the side effects is that Mexico experiences an economic renaissance as a result of our idiotic racially-motivated isolationism… well, that is genuinely one hell of a silver lining.
Yeah, I'm with you. This is going to suck for the Americans who fought against the rise of fascism, but it is good for the rest of the world that we're not at the helm anymore.
Excellent points here. Thank you for sharing.
I'm wondering if it might suck - possibly harder - for those who voted for fascism.
Agreed.
And the Democrats can sit, watch, and learn what it means to be electable while it happens.
The DNC? Learn?
Lol
