Consuelo Gomez

Consuelo Gomez Dept: NEW YORK, N.Y. - She could save money, and there's a good chance she wouldn't get caught, but Consuelo Gomez says she won't hire people who aren't authorized to work in the U.S. to work for Marty K, her cleaning and landscaping business, according to Winnipeg Free Press. "I'll hear, 'they're $2,000 cheaper than you,' and I say, 'that's impossible,'" says Gomez, whose business is located in Bellevue, Wash. "I can't fathom how they do it because we would lose money." In this Monday, April 15, 2013, photo, Consuelo Gomez, of the facilities management company "Marty K" poses for a photo, in the company's offices in Bellevue, Wash. When space on the company's white boards is scarce in her small office, she sometimes uses the window to run the numbers of her small business. AP Photo/Ted S. Warren Gomez says she believes that she's being undercut by competitors that hire workers who are in the U.S. without permission from the government. When potential clients tell her that her competitors can do the same work for a lot less, it makes her suspicious. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
