From CNN:

MIAMI, Florida (AP) — Thousands of illegal immigrants stayed home this week amid rumors of immigration roundups that federal officials say were unfounded, leaving some industries scrambling for workers.

Len Mills, executive vice president of Associated General Contractors of South Florida, estimated at least 50 percent of workers on construction jobs in the region had not shown up for work.

“This is costing millions of dollars a day, and I don’t know who is going to pay for it,” he said.

Hint: YOU are, Mr. Mills. Consider it tuition for the education you’re now receiving on the consequences of hiring illegals instead of American citizens.
