Meg Whitman's former housekeeper was an undocumented worker and claims working for the Republican candidate for Governor was a "nightmare." Poster Comment: Where's ICE during this illegal alien press conference?
Nicky Diaz Santillan, Whitman's housekeeper of 9 years, held a news conference with her lawyer, Gloria Allred, and claims Whitman had all the clues she was an undocumented worker but closed her eyes to it because she was cheap help ... $23 an hour.
Allred claims the housekeeper was "exploited, disrespected, humiliated and emotionally and financially abused" by Whitman.
Allred claims when the housekeeper was hired 9 years ago through an agency, Whitman never asked if she was in the U.S. legally. And, during her employment, Santillan told Whitman she couldn't travel to Mexico. And, Allred said, Whitman found out Santillan's Social Security number didn't match her name, but Whitman did nothing. Allred said it's the classic case of "don't ask, don't tell."
That all changed, Allred says, when Whitman launched her campaign for Governor, realizing having an illegal alien on board was a liability ... and fired her.
Santillan says Whitman treated her "like a piece of garbage" by letting her go.
Allred says Santillan is filing a claim with the Labor Commission for back wages and mileage.
Yesterday, Whitman said in the debate with Jerry Brown that employers should be held accountable for hiring undocumented workers.

This is nothing more than a Democrat Party hit. Whitman hired the housekeeper from a valid employment agency. During the entire time she was employed, Whitman paid payroll taxes to the government (unlike several Democrat politicians). When Whitman found out that she was illegal, she terminated her, as U.S. LAW REQUIRES.
Apparently her husband denied knowing about her status, then when confronted with a letter about her, in his own handwriting, suddenly remembered.
No, he said he doesn't remember seeing it, but it is possible. The letter didn't say anything about immigration status. Regardless, it doesn't mean Meg knew anything about this. Remember, she was working 18 hours a day building eBay. It seems to me that the husband was probably in charge of the house.
Her husband is/was a doctor at Stanford - the illegal alien was probably running the house.
Plus, they were all so busy helping Palin find the "path to citizenship" that they didn't have any time to find a US embassy, or even an immigration lawyer.
