New Actor: Businesses Lay Off Salvadoran Workers in D.C.
Salvadoran workers who clean and maintain federal buildings and grounds in the Washington region, including the Pentagon and nearby military bases, were told not to report to work starting Thursday. Restaurants, hospitals and construction firms also laid off Salvadoran staff, including crews on a data center project.
A late Wednesday update from U.S. immigration authorities kept protections and work permits for Salvadorans with temporary status in place until further notice. Families responded by listing homes for sale, moving savings out of the country and arranging for relatives to take in their children.
