Tyson Foods, a multinational food manufacturer based in the U.S., is accused of dumping millions of pounds of toxic chemicals into American lakes and rivers. Nitrogen, phosphorus, chloride, oil, and cyanide are among the over 370 million pounds of chemicals investigators allege the company has illicitly dumped. The pollutants are said to have been released by the company’s 41 slaughterhouses and processing plants over just the past five years.
According to the investigation by the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS), the toxic chemicals were flushed from Tyson facilities during the release of wastewater. This water also was found to contain high concentrations of blood, harmful bacteria, and animal feces. Some of these waterways are used as a source of drinking water for Americans.
The multinational food manufacturer has also been criticized for hiring tens of thousands of migrant laborers in its facilities. Tyson Foods — along with many other American corporations — has used a Biden government program run by the nongovernmental organization (NGO) Tent Partnership for Refugees to employ so-called asylum seekers. Many of these individuals have likely entered the U.S. illegally.
In March, The National Pulse’s editor-in-chief Raheem Kassam explained how the Biden government abuses the fast-tracking of work authorizations for illegal immigrants to supply American corporations with cheap labor. He noted that in April of last year, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) said they were processing 535,764 pending authorization petitions, also known as Employment Authorization Documents (EADs). After taking office, the move to relax restrictions on these was one of the first things the Biden government and its Attorney General Merrick Garland did.
The Trump administration had previously suspended such authorizations.
