“U.S. Attorney Bob Balfe said federal immigration agents and local police in northwest Arkansas have only gone after employers who flout the law and exploit illegal immigrant workers.

“They are modern-day slave labor,” Balfe said after a recent raid on a chain of Mexican restaurants.

In recent years, Balfe acknowledged it may appear that officials are targeting Hispanics. However, he stressed his office has been involved in other cases involving employers hiring illegal immigrants from Asia and Czechoslovakia.”*
