DESCRIPTION:Attorney General Todd Rokita tells Tyson Foods to answer tough 
 questions on employment of illegal aliens\n\nAG Rokita says growing issue 
 in Logansport is unfair to Hoosiers\n\nAmid reported concerns about a larg
 escale influx of illegal aliens and “legal migrants” into local commun
 ities\, Attorney General Todd Rokita announced today that his office has s
 ent a civil investigative demand (CID) to the Tyson Foods in Logansport se
 eking information related to human labor trafficking. \n\nThe CID states A
 ttorney General Rokita’s office has reasonable cause to believe that Tys
 on Foods may be in possession\, custody\, or control of documentary materi
 als or may have knowledge of facts that are relevant to an investigation b
 eing conducted concerning human labor trafficking and indecent nuisances. 
  \n\n“The vast number of additional people coming into our communities i
 s alarming\, and that’s just from the standpoint of seeing the staggerin
 g number of resources being put towards this fight – Every. Single. Day\
 ,” Attorney General Rokita said. “When you have an open border and an 
 influx of people coming over illegally by the millions\, we can’t have c
 ompanies incentivizing this criminal behavior by offering jobs for cheap l
 abor. It’s not fair to those looking for employment or to our law enforc
 ement\, local hospitals and healthcare facilities\, taxpayers that fund th
 ese services\, and our housing and labor markets. We will continue looking
  into this growing issue.” \n\nAttorney General Rokita said his investig
 ation is focused on the coordinated efforts among international and local 
 nonprofit “refugee resettlement” organizations and employers\, like Ty
 son Foods\, to bring large numbers of migrants to Indiana. \n\nOn November
  9\, 2024\, Attorney General Rokita announced he sent CIDs to Cass County 
 Health Department\, Logansport Community School Corp.\, Berry Global Group
  Inc.\, Tent Partnership for Refugees\, God is Good\, and Jackson County I
 ndustrial Development Corp. over this same growing issue. \n\nAttorney Gen
 eral Rokita’s office is conducting these investigations pursuant to its 
 authority under Indiana’s Deceptive Consumer Sales Act and indecent nuis
 ance statute.  \n\nAccording to the CID\, Tyson Foods must respond in writ
 ing by December 4\, 2024. \n\nA headshot of Attorney General Rokita is a
